When hundreds of designers and models are put at task, the madness that follows is unbelievable.

Lakme Fashion Week Summer/Resort 2018, one of the largest fashion events in the country, begins August 22. 

The five-day event, which ends August 26, will be held at the St Regis hotel in Lower Parel, Mumbai. 

Rediff.com's Rajesh Karkera and Hitesh Harisinghani give us a sneak peak into the preparations leading to the big day.

Take a look.
