Fashion house Vizyon showcased a collection inspired by the stars and natural beauty of the universe on Day One of Lakme Fashion Week. Head designer Ninon Palisse, who has worked with prestigious French fashion houses  Emmanuel Ungaro and Chloe, is credited with creating the line, which sported draping, 3D structural folds and origami layers. Take a look.
