For this collection Bibhu focused more on daywear and many pieces for the everyday working woman.

Most of the gowns had a mermaid tail, while all were made with soft fabrics that allowed the garments to move and flow with ease. The overall vibe of the collection was one of effotless, innate glamour. Additionally, the models’ clean and simple slicked back buns added to the ethereal feel of the collection. In essence, each look was bold and made a strong statement that many working women are looking for today.
