The Naeem Khan F/W 2017 show was a beautiful display of elegant and intricate fashion with statement pieces and movement that adds instant fun to any event that you wear the Indian-American designers ensembles. The pieces were young, yet chic and elegant with stately silhouettes. From embellished pantsuits with sheer panels and cold shoulder fabulousness to fringe-tastic fashion, prominent pantsuits (Bey got to wear it first!), and more.
