Last updated on: April 29, 2010 16:51 IST

Mumbai witnessed a fashion show featuring creations by the toast of the fashion world on April 27 -- Lanvin, Stella McCartney and Moschino.

Socialites and entrepreneurial sisters Charu Sachdev and Priya Sachdev Chatwal were behind the event, organised by their company TSG International Marketing Pvt Ltd, which introduces, manages and operates high end luxury brands in India.

Titled 'Kitsch Kouture', the stunning ensembles modelled by desi beauties were, however, anything but kitschy -- here's a look at some of the sizzling eveningwear on display!

To start off with, we have the glam garments of Moschino -- seen here is a little black dress, glammed up by a bling-thing neckpiece featuring a peace symbol motif.
