IMAGES: Red-hot ramp action and Kangs catwalks again!
In Part IV of a series, we bring you some more ramp action from the ongoing Wills Lifestyle India Fashion Week!
Celebrity showstoppers, bikinis and minis, feisty fads -- saddle up as we bring you more of the WLIFW happenings straight from Delhi.
We start off with the bold creations of Malini Ramani, a resort line called 'Enigmatically Yours'. Seen here is Rachel Bayros in a one-piece swimsuit complemented by a fringed bolero.
Cut-away couture
Next we have this striking cut-away maxi, slashed right to the hips.
Shift of palette
The designer shifts to multicolor scalloped thread embroidery and mirror-work with this edgy jumpsuit.
Ethnic influence
The collection winds down with ethnic-influenced designs like this pretty swirling one.
Splendour 'n' prowess
Rahul Singh used whites and indigo blues to come up with a crisp line with formal undertones -- check out this ethereal, sheer number.
Boho chic
We see Rachel once again, strutting casually in a checkered pinafore maxi.
Slim fits
Show off those pins in pencil pants and a casual shirt.
Patch it up
Leggings patched over with frayed square satin pieces make a statement, teamed with a layered tunic.
French Grandiose
Drawing his inspiration from the famed French queen Mary Antoinette, Shantanu Goenka's new summer creations were an opulent mix of vintage silhouettes with 3D pleating on the waist. Here, Nethra Raghuraman shows off her supermodel chops in a fuschia mini.
Blooming in bloomers
Tamara Moss strikes a pose in satin bloomer shorts and an exquisite threadwork top.
Demure damsel
Things take a demure turn in this matching floral silk skirt and top.
Queen bee
Kangana Ranaut was quite the showstopper in a flouncing, romantic red-carpet gown.
Love inspiration
Nikasha Tawadey's collection progressed like a romantic poem -- starting soft and timid with each verse, the collection unfolded many emotions. The silhouettes were ethnic, celebrating indigenous shapes like this delicate tunic.
Let it flow
This flowing, creamy tunic was the very essence of feminity.
Sari statement
Contrary to convention, this pretty pink drape was teamed with a loose, ruffle-hemmed blouse instead of tight-fitting choli.
Coral cutie
Noyonika Chatterjee sails out in a delicious coral ensemble.
Smart style
Duo Gauri and Nainika stuck to well-cut, colourful attire like this pistachio jumpsuit.
Burgundy blush

True blue
Another chic cocktail takes to the ramp in silky blue.
Cloud with a silver lining
Twosome Niket and Jainee created a warm chemistry with silver and white for the coming season, starting off with Rachel Bayros in this batwing ensemble.
Pale but pretty
An encrusted corset and swishing ghagara are the cynosure of all eyes.
Vision in ivory
We see another Indian outfit step out, but this time it's a short choli with off-white lehenga and ruffled dupatta.
Short and long of it
A lovely see-through robe with embroidery adds an unusual touch to this mini.
Peek-a-boo
Rimzim Dadu's offerings from label 'My Village' was all about textures, structure, pot pourri, sequins and space age, like this amazing cutwork maxi with sleeveless jacket.
Space-age spin
This full length ice-blue skirt was complemented by a pink bustiere and transparent acrylic overcoat.
Floral funk
Blue and green pastels work their charm on a textured floral number.
Bow belle
And finally, Nethra Raghuraman goes the urbane route in a giant bow-embellished top and blue midi.
