It comprised body fitted gowns with deep plunging necklines in brown and beige with multi-colour hand work, gowns in metallic, earthy colours with hand embroideries and sequin work.

The collection includes dresses, gowns, tops with interesting neckline, cuts and slits. Jain has used metallic and pop colours like neon green, pink, blue and orange to give the line-up a 'feel good' vibe.
"People feel good about themselves even in these tough times. It can be uplifting, it can improve self-confidence and infuse a positive attitude towards life. 'Connected' is about celebrating ourselves as winners in these unprecedented times. We have taken fashion to an edge using pop and metallic colours. So we can feel good and positive," Jain said.
