Malini Ramani
The Ramani woman is a princess at heart; she survives on unadulterated glamour, opulent excess, glossy flash and heaps of razzmatazz. Divas and urber-glam fashionistas come into their own when dressed by her.

Essentially dessert India in its inspiration, with Rajasthan as its focus, the collection was very sexy, naughty, spoilt and feminine in its expression. Ankle length tunic dresses with long slits running up the legs, angrakha styled fitted knee length dresses, flirty handkerchief hem dresses with ample movement, teensy mini skirts, rushed tee-shirts and fitted pants, sheer vertically paneled gypsy skirts and sarees with sexy blouses were the mainstay of her collection.
The dresses with fully embroidered florals warm colours, and the line of ensembles appliquéd with bold gold and primary coloured patches were also very eye catching. The highlights were the rib knit cholis in single colours or vibrant stripes, embellished with a million golden ghungroos; pompom encrusted bags; and the crystal and mirror work spangled ornamentation. Colours of red, fuschsia, coral, yellow, and orange were set against the neutrals of white, black and nude.
