It was nothing less than a fairy tale -- models sashaying down the runway draped in dreamy and glamourous outfits.

But it was the showstopper Jacqueline Fernandez who turned heads as she stepped out in a soothing pastel hue ensemble.

Arjun Kapoor aka Ka from upcoming movie Ki & Ka too didn’t fail to impress either.

Here’s what all transpired at Manish Malhotra's show featuring his latest line titled Elements.

Showstopper Jacqueline Fernandez looked ethereal in a floor scraping embellished gown with a long cape.

Here’s a closer look. The brilliant use of tulle made it look splendid.

Handsome hunk Arjun Kapoor oozed confidence as he strutted his stuff.

Here he is again, flanked by the models.

Want to top the hotness meter? Wear a dark turquoise blue gown with a plunging neckline with minimal embroidery, just like Deepti Gujral.

Brides-to-be, here’s how you can nail the new-age bride look. A cut-out gown with floral embroidery like Lakshmi Rana...

Or an off-shoulder tulle top with beautiful bling over cigarette pants.

Pinstripes will never go out of fashion. A pinstriped coat or a kurta?

Are you an ardent lover of sheen?

Manish lent a modern touch to his saris with embroidered capes.

And gave a bandage look to peplum gowns.
