Indian fashion designer Manish Arora revealed his collection for Spring 2009 at India Fashion Week in New Delhi, and it was literally a circus.
The models had clown faces painted on and the colorful and quirky collection included puffy, multicolored shorts and beautifully decorated, loose mini dresses, a golden, body-hugging night gown with ruffles and a lovely train. There was also a long, colorful dress that would really be a hit at a carnival.
All the models wore what looked like knitted caps in this eccentric and colorful collection.
