Manish Arora debuted his newest collection, 'Fascination', at the announcement of the regional round winners of the MercedesTrophy Indian golf tournament in Pune last week.

The prestigious sporting event is celebrating a decade of existence this year and the event saw models take to the runway in creations inspired by the luxury automobile, while Bollywood starlet Kim Sharma did the showstopping honours.

Of course, the line was also reflective of the designer's trademark style -- cutting edge and colourful, with eccentric leanings. Seen here is an unbelievably teensy mini with a matching ruffled overcoat, set off with boots.

A plunging jumpsuit in satin brings multi-hued flair to the ramp -- and what do you think of that sleek machine in the background? Yeah, we went ga-ga over it too!

A rustic silhouette meets a zany urbane print on this number, which graduates from a fitted bodice to a swirling skirt.

The designer lets his vibrant imagination take over with this wildcat (read wild!) ensemble -- the sleeves are actually sparkling lion heads in fabric!
We're not all as fashion-forward as this, but hey -- if you are, this space-age dress, with its bird of prey motif should be right up your alley!
We're not too sure what Arora is trying to say with this exaggerated ruffle-and-layers number, but you'll definitely be grabbing eyeballs in it!
Just as we thought things were about to get even more outrageous, we were surprised by this relatively demure and becoming peacock pocketed dress.
And we're back on the freakish bandwagon with this bodysuit, complete with armour-style accoutrement!
An ochre outfit adorned with large, bright butterflies cascading down one side makes its presence felt on the runway.
Except for the nutty boots, we loved this spiral-adorned sunny yellow ensemble -- very chic!
Kim Sharma poses for the flashbulbs in a sharply-cut Oriental-design number with sparkling blue bodice.
