Unlike Kochhar’s Parisian mood, designer Ashdeen Lilaowala chose to float towards the eastern part of the globe for her Orient Express collection, inspired from the first-ever Chinese American movie star Anna May Wong.

While America is busy celebrating the 40th anniversary of Diane von Furstenberg’s iconic wrap dress, the current edition of LFW also saw the Indian version of the legendary timeless costume showcased by designer Anushka Khanna. The collection featured an exquisite array of jazzy wrap dresses made from woven and knitted lame, strappy beaded tube dresses, silver embroidered shifts, two toned kimonos, metallic skirts, gold biker jackets and khaki jersey gowns.
