According to the Hindustan Times, in an interview with PTI, the designer of the gown, Gaurav Gupta, revealed his inspiration behind the garment.
"We wanted something which denotes hope, birth and beauty. After all the world has gone through in the past few years, we wanted to celebrate life and art," he said.
