The collection
"Desire, illusion, sensuality interlaced in the design is what Maya is all about," says Singh. Seema's designs are contemporary with western cuts and include a dash of Indianness. The colours she has used in her creations include beige, peach, grey, blue and red. In her collection you can find a variety ranging from a velvet tube dresses with zardozi work to a blue flowing georgette dress with embellishments.

"The idea was to present a resort line and something everyone could relate to. Maya is an illusion, and hence, I expanded the colour pallete. These outfits are not just limited to the show and will be available at my store as well," she informs.

Style quotient
Each design has been created to suit the city's fashion statement. Minimalistic with a dash of oomph and sensuality, the collection is a must-watch. Keeping the Indian figure in mind, the collection is smart and will suit all occasions. Though there isn't any mix and match option in the designs, Seema suggests that if someone is not comfortable wearing the bikini blouse with the lehenga, they can try on the brocade blouse instead.
Fit for the urban woman, these outfits are hassle-free and easily manageable. Seema suggests one could enhance the look of the dress by accessorising it or "Just keep it simple and let the dress do the talking," she says.

The showstopper for the fashion will be model Pooja Chopra. With new unique designs, you have multiple reasons to head to the venueu00a0-- take a look at the collection and also the city's newest party hub.
