Masaba Gupta's summer-resort line at the Lakme Fashion Week was a predecessor to her forthcoming fall-winter bridal collection. This one, Postcards from Benaras, sought inspiration from the city's widows and 'their extraordinary lives (that change) with changing times'.

Needless to say, white dominated the colour palette as models walked the ramp in dresses, skirts, sharara and palazzo pants and body suits.

Parineeti Chopra opened the show for the talented young designer.

There are shirt dresses and there are shirt dresses. This one, as you may well imagine, is the latter. Had. Us. Drooling!
