Pallavi Jaipur began with her collection, Buzzar inspired from the busy shopping streets of Jaipur, her hometown. Here Candice Pinto walks the ramp in a dreamy outfit.

Pooja Kapoor's womenswear line paid tribute to the 'warrior-priestess', a woman who in her own words 'strives to use fierce grace in her battle for truth and higher consciousness'. It is thus that we see an almost ancient Roman silhouette in this first outfit.
