Things start off with this splendid blue ethnic ensemble, with a gold border and set off by chandelier earrings.

Corset fit

Champagne and silver set off a corset, worn underneath a sheer sky-hued sari with silver diamond detailing.

Stylish sherwani

Continuing in the same blue vein, the designer showcases a 'V'-necked sherwani with sparkling edges.

Plush purple

Beautifully tailored, a stunning purple jacket is worn over a black bikini and churidaar pants. And that jewelled necklace stole the show!

High-waisted verve

The ghagra goes high-waisted on this red- and gold-tinged grape affair, with matching cap-sleeved choli.

Maharaja fix

Freddy Daruwala faces the cameras in purple, sporting a very royal-looking neckpiece.

Vintage foliage

Red flowers dot emerald green on this pretty drape, cutting a striking figure.

Rose red

Diandra Soares shows off swirling sleeves on a rosy and otherwise fitted kurta and churidaar pants.

Classy cocktail

Minimalist gold patterning adorns this blood-red sari, ideal for upper-cut cocktail parties.

Rouched reverie

Sanea Sheikh strikes a pose in velour choli and a mermaid ghagra that shows off multi-hued embroidery and rouched detailing down the sides.

Cool champagne

We see another ethnic get-up for guys heavy on the sparkle -- not for everyone, but then metrosexuality is here to stay, right?

Bridal splendour

Halder takes a bow alongside his jaw-dropping showstopper -- a traditional lehenga, set off by a solid gold choker.
