There will be 119 designers showcasing there designs during the event. One designer I have been following on is Urvashi Kaur. This new age designer has been making steady progress with her infusion designs experimenting with an array of Indian fabrics with modern silhouette and colour palette

She will be presenting her collection for fashion week titled Shunya which she says is about intriguing human mind. 

Fuchsia, oranges and aurora red, blended  with natural whites. Indigo fights for the spotlight, a color that echoes the natural dye .Usage of silk weaves like Maheshwaris, Chanderi, Tassar, Tissue, Matka, Kota and, Khadi cotton. Shibori, tie & dye technique evoke the Bandhej tradition, and block prints inspired from mosaic styled geometric patterns are all infused with a prominent positioning of the Hamza, Hand of Fatima. 
The entire collection incorporates hand tucking, subtle ruching and dramatic pleats, alongside separates with touches of volume and movement, in drapes that set a dramatic rhythm.

Dresses with asymmetric folds and hemlines, Angrakha inspired tunics, cowelled shalwars, pleated and flared pants, along with layered, reversible sheer jackets and crop tops are the mainstay of the collection.
