Last updated on: March 9, 2010 17:55 IST

Designer Payal Singhal displayed her latest range of resortwear on the fifth and final day of the LFW. Crepe and embroidery came together to create outfits that can be worn both by day and by night, with crystal embellishments and changeable silhouettes.

So here's a look at a sparkling wardrobe that's ideal for both the beach and a formal occasion.

Opening the show was this ethereal crepe tunic, sporting a a stone-embroidered collar and worn over tulle leggings.

The designer got Anusha Dandekar and her siblings APeksha (left) and Shibani (right), who she counts among her closest friends and favourite clients, to model a trio of balloon dresses, each with a different colour scheme. And they all look great too!
