Varun Bahl opened the Delhi Couture Week 2011 with his Indo-French collection, blending vintage with contemporary perfectly. The designer had Bollywood diva Madhuri Dixit in the front row to support him. Dressed in a white anarkali suit complemented with silver stilettos, Madhuri stole the show even though she didn't walk the ramp. However, the actor also delayed the show by almost an hour.

This couture collection was inspired by French queen Marie Antoinette. Colour palette varied from wines and maroons to gold and ivory.
