India’s most celebrated fashion designer and Bollywood’s undisputed style favourite, Manish Malhotra, is once again setting trends—not just in fashion, but in how it’s showcased. Ditching the conventional runway, Malhotra is redefining glamour at Hyundai India Couture Week (ICW) 2025 with an exclusive couture party that’s expected to be one of the most talked-about events of the season.
Scheduled for Saturday, July 26, 2025 at 9:30 PM, the designer will host a cocktail-themed soirée in Delhi, where his latest creations and timeless sartorial masterpieces will be unveiled in a format never seen before at ICW.
This year’s fashion week kicked off on July 23, with designer Rahul Mishra opening the event. But the buzz is building around Malhotra’s return to ICW after a hiatus of nearly five and a half years. 
Forget the ramp. This curated evening will feature archival couture pieces displayed in an immersive, party-like setting with live music, luxe ambience, and a guest list that’s expected to include top Bollywood names. Attendees have been asked to follow a “cocktail chic” dress code, setting the tone for a night that blends fashion with festivity.
Breaking away from tradition has always been part of Malhotra’s ethos, and this year, he’s proving yet again why he remains at the forefront of Indian couture.
