Designer Rocky S created a stunning array of bridals to go with jewellery designed by Queenie for Giantti for the opening show of the LFW. Diamonds dazzled and mixed with rich lehengas, saris and other ethnicwear on the runway. And the starry showstopper was Bong bombshell Bipasha Basu -- take a look.
A stunning black one-sided anarkali teamed with churidaar pants and touches of gold opened the show.
Seductive silhouette
The same striking hues come together once more, this time on a lehenga -- and don't miss that jewelled headband.
Champagne chic
Model Marianna Dias struts her stuff in a heavily embroidered champagne number, with a wispy tulle dupatta adding a classy feel.
Peachy pret
With its heavy scalloped border and pale peachy tone, this sari is every bride's dream.
Less is more
Stand out in a crowd with this simple but elegant churidaar kurta and embellished dupatta.
Faded funk
Rocky goes the red hot dip-dye route with this empire-waisted anarkali, encrusted with crystals. Queenie adds embellishments by way of classy, understated diamond earrings.
Plush pink
Nicole Faria steps out in fading fuschia, the colours making more of a statement than any embroidery can.
Striking sunset
Orange comes to the fore with this halter-necked ensemble, tastefully bordered with a crushed diamante effect.
Elegant pastels
The designer continues in the same vein, switching palettes but maintaining uniformity by way of elegance and embellishments. Surelee Joseph does complete justice to the creation.
Rhapsody in blue
A dark blue choli sets off this sky-hued sari, which drapes beautifully and is the cynosure of all eyes.
Slimlined simplicity
If you've got a tall, lithe figure, a body-hugging number like this one, accentuating the bodice, is sure to be a hit.
Layer upon layer
Rocky plays with layers on this ghagra, each sporting rich, sparkling embroidery, while the dupatta is demurely draped across the front.
Abstract design
This sari scores on the unusual front, with its abstract columns of gold threadwork set against a pink background.
Lissome lemon
Lemony delight brings out this short kurta, the dupatta tied interestingly like a scarf around the neck.
Bridal beauty
Actress Bipasha Basu makes her appearance in a stunning pale gold showstopper, showing off her new svelte figure.
Trio of talent
Queenie and Rocky S accompany Bips down the runway as the audience applauds their efforts.
