Actress Aditi Rao Hydari shined in the moondust collection walking for top designer Gaurav Gupta in a grey gown with a long trail on day 6 of the India Couture Week in New Delhi.
 

"This collection is extremely couture. It's inspired by nature, forest, almost like a parallel world which is happening on the moon in a fairytale way. It is all these art like scuptures made into garments which are wearable sculptures. It's just about celebrating fantasy," Gupta said in a statement.
 
 Using his signature fabrics like chiffon, crepe, tulle, net and lace, the collection had pieces with exaggerated shoulders, fishtail gowns, body hugging dresses and much more in colours like grey, blue and green.

 "It's very special because GG (Gupta) is one of the first people who encouraged me when I was new ...almost six to seven years ago," Aditi said on closing his show.
 
Recalling her initial days in showbiz, she said: "He called me and I went to his studio. I just sat there for the whole day. I took out everything from all his old and new collections. I tried everything on. I felt like a real princess."
 
"From that day to this day, I am so close to him. He is very protective of me. It's very special because it’s the first time I am walking for him. And also, the collection is called 'Moondust'," she said.
