Fashion designer J J Valaya enjoys taking his audience on a trip down memory lane and that's exactly what he did with his collection for the latest season of Lakme Fashion Week x FDCI.

JJV Kapurthala, a bridge-to-luxury label, was meant for 'the discerning traveller who believes in celebrating in style albeit without the burden of heavy embellishments'.

Models breezed through the ramp in printed, cotton saris that are perfect for the scorching summer. 

Contemporary lehengas were modelled without dupattas, fitted corsets made way for traditional half sleeved blouses.

The male models sauntered in looking dapper in pastel shirts.
