The work of the Indian designer, who has created a special line of handbags in association with Judith Leiber, is attracting Hollywood's A-listers.
The talent of Indian couturiers is finally being noticed internationally and the latest designer to jump onto the Hollywood bandwagon is Suneet Verma.
The designer has seen phenomenal success with the special line of handbags he created for high-end label Judith Leiber.
While Verma has been catering to the who's who of Bollywood for years, this is definitely a huge step up for him, what with international celebrities promoting his work on red carpets across the world.
And the first notable diva to tuck one of these intricately created clutches under her arm has been none other than the bootylicious Jennifer Lopez, who carried Verma's champagne-hued 'Starburst' to the Metropolitan Museum of Art's 2010 Costume Institute Ball (Met Gala) in New York this May.
