Say the word ‘Manish Malhotra’ and term ‘Bollywood’ comes to mind. Credited with giving many much loved actresses a gorgeous makeover in terms of style, clothing and makeup; Manish has become the much sought after designer when it comes to bridal wear too. Someone once said that anybody who got married in a Manish Malhotra creation would feel nothing less than like a princess in a fairy-tale wedding. Not without reason then, Manish’s creations at the Lakme Fashion Week are always looked forward to with much fanfare.
This time, the focus at the Lakme Fashion Week was on regal clothing that was fun and easy on the eyes. At the same time, the big prints are so attractive too. Check out Shraddha Kapoor in a stunning lehenga that is guaranteed to look superb for a mehendi or sangeet function.

Manish is famed for his embroidery and zardosi work so it was only natural that a work of intricate thread work would feature in his 2016 collection at the Lakme Fashion Week. With a deep shade of navy blue and a contrast of beige, this one will make any bride look regal.

We heart the way this cropped off shoulder top in all its shimmer and glitter goes beautifully with the muted baby pink lehenga skirt with embroidery. Just the right pick for the reception wear, we think.
