‘Maharadja & Co’ was the title of the Preciosa (Czec crystals) sponsored glamorous couture show by Rimple and Harpreet Narula. Celebrating the days and glory of the Raj is the essence of Rimple and Harpreet Narula’s brand (although every Indian designer invariably cites the same inspiration).

Rimple and Harpreet have endeavored to capture the very beginnings of the concepts of bespoke and portraiture in India with their elegant bridal trousseau offerings. The collection hues also celebrated the royal opulence of yesteryear.

All was ‘believable’ until buxom megastar and ‘showstopper’ Shilpa Shetty entered the scene rudely bringing the illusion into 2015 with the worst outfit of the collection.

What is the point of this trashy ‘item number’ design in an otherwise beautiful collection? Perhaps you have to be Indian to understand.
