Staying true to the theme of the year, Go Sustainable, the second day of Lakme Fashion Week was dominated by cotton separates, fluid dresses and striking sarees.
While several looks stood out on Day 2, the highlight of the evening was Preity Zinta, who walked the ramp for Assamese designer Sanjukta Dutta. The actress looked gorgeous in a black and red saree that is said to be inspired by Goddess Durga and traditional Assamese motifs like Singkhap (lion), Moourah (peacock) and Pokhila (butterfly), which represent communal harmony and serenity of Assam.
Among the showstoppers was also Adah Sharma, who strutted down the ramp in a summer printed dress for Lipsa Hembram’s Galang Gabaan. We quite like the designer’s choice of antique jewellery to go along with this look. It uplifts it and gives it a quirky touch.

Monica Dogra turned showstopper for Hemang Agrawal and was seen in something which looked a saree drape to us. Here's a sneak peek from her green room:

Furthermore, Southern sensation Regina Cassandra flaunted a bright showstopper outfit for Hyderabad-based designer Sailesh Singhania. Urvashi Rautela, Nora Fatehi and Neha Shetty turned up to support Sailesh. Buzz is, Regina will be seen in Aankhen 2 with Amitabh Bachchan and Arshad Warsi.

We also spotted Shamita Shetty, Preeti Jhangiani with husband Parvin Dabas and Madhoo Shah at the fashion event. While Preeti stuck to a floral dress, Shamita looked radiant in a sunshine yellow ensemble. However, a different pair of heels would have looked way better.

Shabana Azmi also looked eternal in that white ensemble! Something we don't see Shabana Azmi wearing too often.}
To sum it up, Day 2 of LFW was a visual treat and we are sure that the showcased designs will set trends in the coming season.
