Designers David Abraham and Rakesh Thakore presented the 'Cocktails and Samosas' collection at the Lakme Fashion Week.
Its journey started with Benaras weaves which took various forms on the ramp.
The show was a tribute to textile legend, late Martand Singh.
The outfits were inspired by Eastern wrapping and tying styles.
The colour tone was restricted to black and gold.
The saris got a fashionable twist with the bow belt.
Textured brocade patterns on angarakhas were one of the highlights.
Fluid sarongs and sequinned skirts were teamed with collared shirts and jackets.
Caped sleeves with textured interiors and embroidered tunics were there too.
