As the show progressed there was something appealing and deferential about her clear thought process of paying respect to her homeland. Though there was a sense of whimsy in the sculpted looks, the exaggerated volume in others were the product of serious thought. Her idea was to reinterpret traditional Punjabi ensembles in a theatrical global frame and that strategy made for some standout runway looks like the sari-inspired gown and the Patiala salwars.. the lehengas and the shararas. Overall with such a flamboyant theme it was only fitting that the show closed with live Punjabi songs when the designer came out to take a bow!!
