But instead of presenting on the ramp, Anamika Khanna chose to have a showcasing at her store in Kolkata.

SONAM KAPOOR IN ANAMIKA KHANNA

Anamika Khanna's 'Luxury 2014' is a collection that is targeted at brides. Although the collection does not look 'bridal' in the typical sense, it presents a modern option to the new brides of India. The collection has some very French 'baroque' elements. The embroidery is exquisite and the drapes are totally playful. You could describe the collection as a vintage one but it did not have elements of traditional bridal attire in it.

The collection comprised earthy colours and lots of matte gold embroidery. There were poncho cholis and heavy lehengas in Luxury 2014. There were also dhoti pants and lots of sheer elements.

There were English floral prints and African tribal motifs in avant-garde juxtapositions. To sum it up, Anamika Khanna's 'Luxury 2014' represented the face of the modern Indian bride who would like to experiment with styles and forms.

Some of the cholis in this collection were shaped like shrugs. These designs seem ideal for the winter weddings.

Baroque Blouse

In All Black

White Lace

White sheer material with colourful embroidery forms the base of this collection.

Poncho Blouses
