“Celebrating one year of Diffuse at the Grand Finale of Lakme Fashion Week X FDCI. The rules of fashion are being redefined, it’s time to re-tag. I’m excited to bring the next drop of Diffuse with striking digital prints in androgynous and futuristic designs along with Lakme’s bold endeavour to be #UnapoloegeticallyME. Let the games begin,” the designer said in a statement.

“We, at Lakmé, are excited to bring to you another season of Lakmé Fashion Week X FDCI. This season will be pivoted around our #UnapologeticallyME campaign that celebrates fashionistas at work…
