Inspired by the Festival of Colours, designer duo Shyamal and Bhumika brought a riot of hues and garments to the LFW runway on Day One. Here's a glimpse.

The show was off to a fun start, with all the models taking to the ramp in colourful clothing, the powders of Holi dotting everyone's faces. How's that for a different way of doing things?

Then came each creation one at a time -- first up, a voluminous sack dress, decorated with handprints and a bib neckline.
Seen here is a male model in relaxed organic pants and a multi-grained kurta.

A gregarious spherical motif maxi swirls and twirls cheerfully on the runway.

Orange dhoti pants are teamed with a colourful choli-style bikini -- quite an eye-catcher!
Nicole Faria strikes a pose in an orange cocktail powdered with yellow.
The designers lighten up a little to pale yellow and dotted earthy tones with this wispy draped number
Sexy black and sequinned meets orange, red and green swirls -- great combo!
Emerald green silk makes a splash with this figure-hugging halter-neck
Another floor-sweeping gown takes to the ramp, this one showing off an empire waistline and minimal cutwork.
Brazilian beauty Marianna Dias sweeps past in a red carpet special with one-sided shoulder -- and a thigh-high slit.
Bhumika and Shyamal step out alongside their creations looking very much in a festive mood themselves.
