Let’s delve into the outfits donned by the Day 5 celebrity showstoppers.

Shehnaaz Gill walked for Diksha Khanna, showcasing her collection “Asymmetrical Precision,” inspired by the contrasting themes of bustling urban life and serene mountains. Gill donned a baggy, multi-denim jumpsuit paired with an oversized matching jacket featuring drawstring sleeve details.

Khanna described her collection: “Handwoven textiles whisper tales of distant mountains, while our signature distressed denim lends edgy sophistication. The cultural richness of Bhutanese monasteries is reimagined through delicate dome-shaped appliqué on urban hoodie jackets, perfect for a city day.”
