Madhuri Dixit
Ace designer Ranna Gill's show at the Lakmé Fashion Week x FDCI was worth every dime as her collection and her showstopper took everyone's breath away.
Talking about the collection, Gill said: "It's an urban lady who lives a busy urban life but has her head stuck in a prairie. So, here's Madhuri Dixit our urban prairie."
From "Flowers" to "Bella Ciao" and "Titanium" were played by a live musician on the saxophone and the flute as models, who seemed to take a dip in liquid gold, as they shimmered in Gill's collection "Urban Prairie" strutted the runway.
But the best was saved for the last. The runway lit up with camera flashlights as the audiences didn't want to click a glimpse of the epitome of beauty Madhuri Dixiti Nene, who in every sense looked confident and luxe in the creation by Gill.
