Actor Shruti Haasan is set to walk the ramp for designers Saaksha and Kinni at the upcoming Lakme Fashion Week Winter/Festive 2018.

Titled "Raas", the collection presents a kaleidoscopic swirl of color and freedom of movement. It pays homage to the woman reveling in 'Raas'.

The designer duo has picked bold colors, playful prints and original embroideries for their new range, which also incorporates extensive use of Bandhani, Patola, and Ikat.

They have also reinterpreted the can-weaving tradition of Gujarat's Kotwalia tribe with the help of metal-and-thread interweaving techniques.

Lakme Fashion Week Winter/Festive 2018 runs from August 22 to 26.
