At the Taj Palace in New Delhi, Manish Malhotra tore up the traditional runway format and introduced India’s first-ever Couture Party, a night where couture, music, and celebration collided.
Alessandra sported 'The Lady Crystal Diamond', a bespoke creation by Manish that seamlessly bridged Indian craftsmanship with global glamour. Featuring crystal embroidery and structured draping, the ensemble shimmered with restrained opulence, capturing the spirit of the evening and cementing its place as the most talked-about couture moment of the seasonSandip Das
Adding to the night’s pulse was a line-up of all-women performers, a Malhotra first. Jonita Gandhi’s soulful vocals, DJ Kayan’s signature beats, and Lush Lata’s experimental soundscapes kept the energy electric, turning the couture unveiling into an all-sensory, women-led celebrationSandip Das
Think swirl skirts with hypnotic movement, fluidly draped cocktail saris with crystal pallus, a new trend forecasted by Manish Malhotra himself, sculpted embellished tops, and contoured gowns that feel as effortless as they are magnetic. For men, INAYA presented a sharper spin on eveningwear, with sleek sculpted tuxedos, cropped bandhgalas, and sharply tailored suits that redefine formal dressing for todaySandip Das
The audience was drawn into an immersive, living showcase, with models gliding through the crowd in his newest collection, INAYA, as the party pulsed around them. Sandip Das
From cascading necklaces to sculptural brooches, signature collar pins and statement earrings, the Manish Malhotra High Jewellery added a layer of timeless glamour to the collection. Sandip Das
