What's Fashion Week Without Drama!

















Well, we all know about the "slip" that happened at Rajesh Pratap Singh's show, then there was the model Priya, who stumbled and fell during Charu Parasher's show.

But, the catfight has just begun and it is between designer duo Shane & Falguni Peacock and Manav Gangwani! Well, both of them in their collection had this distinctive dress that not only had very similar "rosette" work but the dresses were also in similar colors.

Though, Manav showcased his collection first, it still does not mean that he is completely in the clear! Well, we will never know though who copied whom, will we? Unless, there is a disgruntled assistant somewhere out there who wants to spill his/her beans!
