India Couture Week 2016 begins today: All that’s in store at the dream gala

The five-day couture showcase will have eleven designers presenting their creations.

With haute couture being synonymous with weddingwear in India, lots of bespoke, grandeur-high ensembles for the bride’s trousseau and the groom’s wardrobe will find its way on to the ramps, with India Couture Week kickstarting in the national capital on Wednesday.

Helmed by Fashion Design Council of India, eleven designers will showcase their creations in the five-day long event, that culminates on Sunday.
