There's little doubt that the actor was the perfect showstopper for Monisha Jaising in a stunning red benarasi dress.

Presenting the best looks from the show.

It's impressive how the designer gave a twist to the traditional benarasi fabric with puffed sleeves and a train. As a showstopper, Shilpa totally did justice to the look.

 

Monisha Jaising's collection was inspired by the Opera. 

Talking of her inspiration, the designer said, "Having been to the Opera in the past, the inspiration for my collection was triggered by the fond memory of the Opera house flowing with people in their finery. 

"I find the whole process of displaying this finery starting from the entrance, walking up the palatial stairways, to the seating area to be exceptionally enticing! You can sort of say that it is a fashion show for the people by the people."

Saris were also part of the collection and the designer threw in some interesting blouses in sheer with cold shoulders. 

 

This model caught our attention is this sexy gold cocktail high-slit dress. 

 

The collection saw a smooth transition from ice blue to metallic and burgundy to rose pink.  

 

It's drama all the way on the runway with this gold dress with a daring neckline and a metallic train. 

 

Metallic gowns were trending on the runway.
