Designer Anita Dongre on Friday showcased her ‘India modern’ fashion line at Lakme Fashion Week Winter/Festive 2014 in Mumbai.

Her latest collection brings out the charm of Rajasthan. The couturier’s line was regal, with bridal lehengas (long skirts) reinterpreted with modern styles, subtle detailing and layering, juxtaposed with intricate gota patti, dori (types of embroidery) and hand embroidery.
