Designers Dhruv Kapoor and Ragini Ahuja will collaborate with collaborating with The Lakme Salon to showcase their "free spirits" collection on the opening day of the Lakme Fashion Week Summer/Resort 2018 on January 31.
 

The spirited collection will be experiment with modern, exotic looks and is designed to let the new-age woman express herself in a way she loves herself the best- beautiful, free and limitless.
 
"In collaboration with Lakme Salon, the collection is inspired by the current generation's uncontrollable urge to overthrow the establishment and defeat the suffocating norm with their alternative vision of the world," said Kapoor in a statement.

Ahuja says that her line recognizes the cultural identity and displacement of tribes who have fled their homeland and live as ethnic refugees.
 
"It's a reflection of their inclusion and exclusion, the calm rebellion and the instinct to survive. The tribal elements form evolutionary patterns- traditional tribal progressing to modern contemporary graphics," she said.
 
"Tones of ivory, navy, black and red signify their account of survival and strength. Practical and comfortable in an effortless way, the silhouettes are relaxed with soft tailoring and volume," added the designer.
 
Leading designer Anamika Khanna will be closing the five day fashion event with her finale collection titled ‘Reinventing Nudes’ with Kareena Kapoor Khan walking the ramp for her as the showstopper.
