This year, the dresses have been designed by Shantanu and Nikhil. "The dress is inspired by the race itself. The silhouette is a sleek fit, much like the cars, thereby making the look chic and glamorous," they have been quoted as saying.
"A zipper band collar is reminiscent of the drivers' suits. And the flamboyant red colour does the trick for us as it is both racy and suits the personality of the sport."
"Finally, the race references are also in the white lines that cut across the dress, giving it the power and aggression that the sport is associated with," the designers concluded in an interview to a national daily.
