Take a look at designer Harangad Singh's line, presented on the final day of the LFW.

Elegant, lady-like and aristocratic, Harangad Singh's 'Madame Pavone' ('pavone' is peacock in French) was all about subtle style and understated luxury.

Using vintage shades like salmon pink and sand in a throwback to pre-World War II, and fabrics like silk and voile, the designer created feminine silhouettes that ranged from maxis to cardigans and shift dresses. Seen here is a red pintuck unlined coat over a black sheath dress.

The designer uses diamond-shaped embellishment to bring out the pink on this blouse. The one-sided skirt is rather unusual, but it seems to work with this look.

The checkered metallic texture on this unique design is a winner for sure.

Barring the headpiece, this electric-blue, flared-sleeve chiffon wrap and long black number make for ideal eveningwear.
