New Delhi, Aug 25 (IANS) Fashion designer J.J. Valaya, known for his rich, embellished couture lines, has now joined hands with wedding planner fernsnpetals (FNP) to design services for signature luxury wedding concepts

....

'Couture is very niche and grand, so the showcase must be in a grand manner as well,' said Valaya.

Valaya also unveiled his fall winter 2007-08 collection called 'The Taj Blueprints' - a continuation of what he showcased at the last edition of the Wills Lifestyle India Fashion Week (WIFW).

With Mughal architectural imprints as the backdrop of the stage, 40 top models sashayed down the ramp to showcase 70 signature pieces.

The collection revolves around a fictional world of US architect Frank Lloyd Wright, who derived inspiration from India's Taj Mahal in his works.
