A FASHION ERA YOU LOVE
The time when Gandhiji started the movement for khadi and all conscientious women were wearing khadi saris and garments – hand-woven, textured beauties.

COLOUR CRAZE THIS YEAR
Blues….

FITNESS OR FASHION
Fitness as a way of life can’t be interchanged with clothes! Clothes are the exterior, I am interested in the interior first, then the exterior.

DESIGNERS ON COVETABLE LIST
Ritu Kumar, Sabyasachi, and all the other designers who make clothes for Indian figures, shapes and form.

NEVER EVER
….is not an option; will carry off anything (it’s all in the attitude). The power is not in the dress. What is so essential is the attitude and a cool and smart mind. The clothes will follow.

A TREND YOU ARE DONE WITH
Every time you think you are done with a style it comes right back.
