While Chandra’s vivid colour palette and the strikingly graphic designs were visually appealing,Mahtani’s Indo western tunics and kurtas in greens,blues and pinks were not as exceptional as the nattily dressed designer. “This is the first time I am showing with Samsaara in Delhi,” said Mahtani as she posed for the shutterbugs.
