The master designer turned to the 70s for inspiration -- his idol, the great Mick Jagger and the women in his life though the 70s. Photographer Hitesh Harisinghani looks wide-eyed!
Trust Narendra Kumar to deliver something out of the blue!
The star designer's latest collection was inspired by Maroon 5's hit number Moves Like Jagger.
Needless to say, the line paid tribute to the style of the legendary Mick Jagger, frontman for The Rolling Stones.

Moves Like Jagger tried to embody Jagger's spirit, in the form of energy and colour.

The line wasn't restricted to menswear.
The women's line was inspired by the style of Bianka Jagger and Jerry Hall, the women who were in Jagger's life through the '70s.
