Sonam walked around and looked dazzled as she saw an array of standout looks including heavily embellished gowns inspired by India and vintage outfits fit for royalty – all showcased in over-the-top settings. The exhibit curated by Hamish Bowles, global editor-at-large for Vogue and editor-in- chief of The World of Interiors, explores the impact that traditional Indian dress, textiles and craft have had on the international fashion sensibility since the 18th century. The showcase features the works of Indian designers such as Abu Jani Sandeep Khosla, Anamika Khanna, Anita Dongre, Anuradha Vakil, Manish Arora, Manish Malhotra, Rahul Mishra, Ritu Kumar, Sabyasachi Mukherjee, Sanjay Garg, and Tarun Tahiliani as well as some global designers such as Christian Dior.
Sonam said in the video about the exhibit and the museum, "I thought it was spectacular. It is so well curated. It is so beautifully designed. It's at an international standard. Actually I haven't seen something like this... the museum space is so beautifully designed, they have done a spectacular job. You can really feel each era, each inspiration, the music, the colours. You never see such a colourful museum and I think that is the speciality being in India. All the clothes still stand out despite the colour, it is a true homage to India-inspired fashion."
