Designer Varun Bahl made a comeback at the Lakme Fashion Week Summer/Resort 2019 after four years with the launch of his new label 'Varun Bahl Pret'.
 

The designer showcased his ready-to-wear collection on the opening day of the Lakme Fashion Week at Mumbai.
 
The collection included kurtas, lehengas, sarees, dresses, cardigans, culottes and trousers specially designed for the Indian body types. The designer has used fabrics like double-georgette, moss-crepe, silk satin, cotton-silk, handwoven chanderi, tussar, and organza.

Commenting on his new collection, Varun said: "I wanted to create something which women can wear from day to night. I wanted to do this pret line for a really long time and I am finally here. Survival is very difficult in the fashion industry and it is really important to keep reinventing yourself.”
 
Varun is hopeful that the collection will do well in the Indian market and banking on the young aspiring women to drive sales.
 
"I am hoping that people will love these garments. Till now, I have got a really good response and hope everybody appreciates it in the market," he added.
