Day two at Lakme Fashion Week Summer/Resort 2012 in Mumbai saw the highly anticipated show of Disney Couture by Little Shilpa and Nitin Bal Chauhan, inspired by memories of Mickey and Minnie Mouse.

Shilpa's creations for the label comprise funky headpieces, neckpieces, bags and shoes with clothes in black, white and red.

They integrate influences from pop surrealism and use imagery that reflects the relationship between Mickey and Minnie - playful, and about love and friendship. "My memories of Mickey and Minnie are in black and white. It was exhilarating to take inspiration from Disney stories to create this first ever couture collection in India," said Shilpa.

After dressing international celebs like Salma Hayek, Angelina Jolie, Sienna Mille and Cate Blanchett, globally acclaimed, India-born designer Bibhu Mohapatra is now looking forward to dressing up Bollywood beauties such as Katrina Kaif, Deepika Padukone and Kajol. The New York-based designer, a regular at international fashion weeks, made his India debut with a spring/summer collection at the Lakme Fashion Week in Mumbai recently.

Mohapatra closed Day two of LFW with his fast paced show featuring 36 elegant Red Carpet creations and cocktail wear whose inspiration apparently was the unpublished Polaroid's of Helmut Newton. And Mohapatra proved why he is the much in demand designer for stunning evening ensembles.
