Actress showcased a holographi­c design by Monisha Jaising on the closing day

-

The finale of Lakme Fashion Week winter-festive 2018 was a grand event as Bollywood actress Kareena Kapoor Khan walked the ramp for designer Monisha Jaising.

Kapoor Khan wore a holographi­c off-shoulder gown from Jaising’s latest collection, Shades of a Diva, which saw a gamut of fabulous ensembles ranging from gowns with thigh-high slits, short dresses, cocktail dresses, sarees and jumpsuits.

The finale started with a bewitching performanc­e by Cirque du Soleil, who gave fashion lovers a sneak-peek of their show Bazzar on the runway on Sunday evening.

The performanc­e saw dancers, acrobats, skaters, hula hoop specialist­s and cube manipulato­rs, who set the stage for a powerpacke­d show.

Kapoor Khan also launched her first make-up line with Lakme called Kareena Kapoor Khan by Lakme Absolute.

Jaising’s collection comprised hues like pinks, blues, blacks, moss green and saw a heavy use of embellishm­ents.

Talking about her “stunning” showstoppe­r, Jaising said: “When you get a diva like her that I have to dress then obviously I am going to be inspired.”

The Veere Di Wedding star, who sported minimal make-up, said walking down the runway this time was even more special for her.

“It is also because of the outfit. I felt like ‘yeah, okay! I’m the ultimate diva’. It is all because of Monisha. The touch of her adding glamour,” she added.

The finale was attended by a number of Bollywood personalit­ies such as Karan Johar, Lara Dutta, Shweta Nanda Bachchan and Sussanne Khan.
