Designer duo Anjalee and Arjun Kapoor have been roped in to design the finale costume for Miss India Universe 2012 Shilpa Singh.

“Yes, we are the official designer for the finale round. The garment that we have prepared for the round is nude corset with pink crystal and Swarovski work on the bodice. It’s free-flowy neon pink coloured gown,” Anjalee told IANS.

The designer duo is known for styling some of the known faces of Bollywood, including Bipasha Basu and Minissha Lamba.

They hope that India Shilpa wins the crown. “I have given the best shot… I am very confident about my work. I know that Shilpa will look glamorous and will stand out. Wishing her luck, hope she gets the crown back,” Anjalee added.

Model-turned-actress Lara Dutta was the last Indian representative who won the Miss Universe crown in 2000.
