Sari backs are often the most coveted part of the design, and these Pallavi Jaikishan pieces capture the current trend of backless blouses with a thin dori (string) and thickly embroidered border. AP

Designer Anju Modi reinterpreted the traditional dupatta as a superhero cape in her menswear line. AFP

Anju Modi's women's line, meanwhile, included voluminous skirts and cropped tops with delicate net dupattas. AP

Showing her versatility, Anju Modi put Bollywood actress Kangna Ranaut in a cream lehenga with a Victorian-style velvet jacket. AFP

India Couture Week 2018 had all the trappings of the glamorous fashion events the country is known for - with heavily embroidered outfits that sparkled as much as the jewels they were paired with, as well as big-name Bollywood showstoppers (we're looking at you Kareena Kapoor and Kangana Ranaut).
