Last night, veteran designers Manish Malhotra and Shaina NC hosted their annual 'Caring With Style' fashion show to raise money for children suffering from cancer.
And pitching in were all their famous friends, who took turns on the runway to showcase their showstopping creations. Proceeds from the event, held in association with adhesives giant Pidilite and now in its seventh year, go to the Cancer Patients Aid Association.
Here's a look at the action on the ramp!
Both collections were all about resplendent ethnicwear and first up was Shaina's line, with Shazahn Padamsee kickstarting things in this beautiful drape featuring tones of green, wine and gold.
