I've been eyeing this for my mom's Christmas gift! (she's really into historical costumes, and I think she'd get a kick out of this.)

I looked at all the pix available on the NYT site yesterday and I've been drooling over all the boning and corset-like blouses. I also noticed that for a spring collection there was a lot of black and shiny leather... it seems my ridiculous taste has come back full-circle to high-society, even without the haute couture wire masks.

I'm not too familiar with the Indian fashion scene, so I would love to see some photos. :)
