Designer Azeem Khan's collection appeared to be inspired by the Victorian era.

Lampshades were lined up parallel to the ramp. We saw lots of long dresses, frills and off-shoulders. There were slip dresses, heavily embellished skirts and legging-pants teamed with lace slip tops. The girls also had plumes and pearls in their hair.

We also saw dressy saris with heavily embroidered borders in light and bright colours. A highlight of the show was ex-VJ Kamal Sidhu walking the ramp in a Victorian style gown along with Azeem Khan.

Can you wear these? The clothes seemed a bit too dramatic for everyday wear. But they would look great as costumes for a film or the stage.
