In Part IV of a series, we bring you some more ramp action from the ongoing Wills Lifestyle India Fashion Week!

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.

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.

Contrary to convention, this pretty pink drape was teamed with a loose, ruffle-hemmed blouse instead of tight-fitting choli.
