The show started to the sound of tabla drums and hip hop beats reflecting the influence of East and West in her cloths. The models with their winged eyeliner and nude lips strutted barefoot down the runway in hot pinks, deep reds and bright blue kaftans. Necklines were ornate and the embroidery distinctively Indian inspired.
Her Indo-western collection also heavily featured several black, sheer floor-length dresses, which had necklines embellished with stones, crystals and silk embroidery. The long sleeves were detailed with drawstring wrist ties, silts and stones.
While Singh pleated her crepe and chiffon dresses, it was her pure silk velvet jackets that really hinted to the royal look she greatly favours. Her Vintage Classics collection featured velvet capes and bolero jackets in shades of maroon, royal green and teal.
