Inspired by the daughter of Mughal emperor Aurangzeb, Abhi and Rahul presented their collection 'Zeb-un-Nissa' on the final day of the LFW.
She was a patron of the arts, a poet and had many lovers.
Designer duo Abhi and Rahul chose Mughal princess Zeb-un-Nissa as their muse for the latest line from their label 'Abhirahul'.
The result was high-couture bridals that drew inspiration from both the Mughal court and eveningwear and modelling the showstopper was actress Anjana Sukhani. Take a look.
First on the ramp is this saffron and plush red anarkali, teamed with churidaar pants and embellished in gold.
