The final day of Lakme Fashion Week opened with designer Atithi Gupta's 'Recherche' winter festive line.

Playful, young attire that teams charming, vaguely retro ensembles." That was what Atithi Gupta offered on Day Five of the LFW.

The collection, called 'Recherche' (it means exquisitely elegant and exotic), used past styles to create modern silhouettes in wools and silks and the colour tone was mixed, with subtle shades and brighter ones mixed to create geometric patterns.

First off we have this minty bubble hem number take to the runway.
