It was the finale everyone was waiting for. 

After five long days of exciting shows, Shantanu and Nikhil presented their 'Recruit' summer/resort collection 2019 at the Lakme Fashion Week.

The iconic grounds of Sophia College in Mumbai was transformed into a breathtaking backdrop for the finale which also introduced the beauty brand's 'Matte Reinvent' -- a new line of cosmetics.

Shantanu and Nikhil's avant garde line saw Kareena Kapoor walk as their showstopper in a bold black gown with a daring thigh slit.

 Kareena's figure embracing black gown had a backless corset which made her look like a warrior princess.

With her hair tied in a pony, winged eye makeup and bright red lip colour, Kareena ensured all eyes were on her.

Kareena walked down the steps revealing her hour glass frame.

The gown had a mini train and a slit that went all the way up the thighs. 

The ultimate diva!

With red and black as the theme, Mumbai's college was turned into a stunning setting for the show.
