The world is his stage and Manish Malhotra shared a part of his glamourous world of craft and design with Dubai on February 6, 2025.
Manish Malhotra unveiled the World Collection: Dubai on the runway for the first time at Dubai Fashion Week 2025. Closing the prestigious fashion week on a celebratory note, the showcase saw Manish Malhotra honour India’s artisanal heritage interwoven with modern, global fashion.
A true showman when it comes to celebrity showstopper surprises on the fashion runway, Manish Malhotra had two renowned international models open and close the show for him. Opening the show for Manish was Russian model Valery Kaufman and Brazilian supermodel and former Victoria’s Secret Angel Adriana Lima closed the star-studded showcase.
From Valery Kaufman’s opening look featuring the scintillating column gown enamoured with tassels to Adriana Lima’s sequin and pearl-encrusted strapless gown, the collection was designed for today’s discerning clientele. The collection embodied wearable opulence, featuring shimmering sequins, handwoven brocades and ethereal pearls, seamlessly blending fluid drapes with structured silhouettes.
Focusing on Middle Eastern and international markets, the collection featured an array of silhouettes including abayas, kaftans, oversized blazers, pantsuits, floor-length jackets, and many more. The colour palette travelled through a sea of gold, silver to monochrome blacks and whites, hints of neon and multi-coloured hues and the Pantone’s Colour Of The Year Mocha Mousse splashed creatively on bold styles.
The luxurious layering, surface texturing and world-class styling complemented each silhouette displayed on the runway. The iconic OG Indian supermodels and Manish’s favourite muses Deepti Gujral, Candice Pinto and Lakshmi Rana dazzled in shimmery, bold structured silhouettes that added the glamorous power chic vibe to the runway show.
Every runway show is incomplete without Manish Malhotra High Jewellery and every model sparkled in the opulence of bold brooches, statement necklaces and regal haathphools. Each piece redefined luxury accessories making them perfect for the contemporary connoisseur.
The Manish Malhotra grand finale is also incomplete without his celebrity friends from the Indian film industry. Spotted seated in the front row of the show were filmmaker Karan Johar and actors Sanjay Dutt, Vijay Varma, Malaika Arora, Urmila Matondkar, and Rasha Thadani among others.
