Shilpa Hazra, a wardrobe wordsmith and a proud mom of a spirited two-year-old, spins fashion stories that speak every language. Off the keyboard, she escapes into Rabindranath Tagore's poetic universe, stirs up flavorful tales in her kitchen and drafts silent stories from the corners of her favorite cafes.
Forget “timeless.” Forget “classic.” Gen Z didn’t come here for your grandmother’s jewellery box rules, they came to remix them. Whether it’s designer jewellery layered over a basic tee, statement earrings that steal the spotlight, sculptural gold necklaces, chunky rings, or playful hair accessories, every piece has to feel like an extension of their personality. This is a generation that treats a jewellery box like a mood board: equal parts nostalgia, chaos, and main-character […]
Every Raksha Bandhan comes with the same question: What do you gift the sister who has already claimed half your wardrobe, your favourite snacks, and most of your patience? Flowers fade, gift cards feel impersonal, and another box of sweets disappears in a day. A piece of jewellery, however, becomes part of her everyday story. Whether she loves […]
If there’s one thread running through Khushi Kapoor’s festive wardrobe this year, it’s petals. Not the loud, obvious kind, the ones that whisper through hand embroidery, appliqué, and thread work, turning up on everything from bridesmaid looks to runway-off-duty glamour. She’s quietly become the reference point for anyone who wants their lehenga to feel like a garden caught mid-bloom rather than a costume. Here’s a walk through five […]
Some decades whisper. The 1970s shouted, in paisley, in polyester, in necklines that plunged and sleeves that billowed like they had somewhere important to be. It was the decade that took the buttoned-up rules of the ’60s and set them loose: bralettes went bohemian, dance floors turned into disco balls of sequins, and the humble blouse became a […]
Long before “tie-dye” became a festival-wardrobe buzzword in the West, Gujarat and Rajasthan were perfecting the art of the resist. Bandhani, that dizzying constellation of tiny dots pinched into fabric one knot at a time, has been quietly running the show in Indian textile history for centuries. Today, the craft is making a powerful comeback across designer sarees, bandhani lehengas, kurta […]
There’s a particular kind of quiet that falls over a weightlifting arena in the seconds before a bar leaves the platform. On Sunday, July 26, at Glasgow’s SEC Armadillo, that silence belonged to Saikhom Mirabai Chanu, and she broke it three times over. While the nation celebrates her historic CWG 2026 gold medal, fans have also […]
Somewhere between the sangeet playlist and the seating chart, every modern bride hits the same wall: how do you honour a thousand years of ritual without dressing like you borrowed your grandmother’s jewellery box? The answer isn’t rejection, it’s reinvention. Today’s bride wants her mangalsutra to double as a bracelet, her earrings to move like water, her ring to argue a little with convention. Here’s the edit that […]
Linen is having more than just a seasonal moment. It has quietly become the fabric that every well-dressed man reaches for when comfort matters just as much as style. Whether you’re heading to a destination wedding, a festive celebration, a weekend brunch or simply upgrading your everyday wardrobe, linen delivers effortless sophistication without trying too hard. Lightweight, breathable and endlessly […]
Raksha Bandhan may be all about sibling love, but it is also one of those festivals where the family group photos are inevitable. So, while your sister may have already planned her outfit weeks in advance, showing up in a last-minute shirt and jeans simply will not do. The good news is that dressing for Rakhi does not […]
Some celebrities rely on elaborate styling to make an impression. Sai Pallavi has taken the opposite route. Her fashion philosophy is built on simplicity, where handwoven silks, timeless Kanjeevarams, airy chiffons, and elegant organzas do all the talking. Whether she’s attending a film promotion, a family celebration, or a public event, her sarees always feel effortless, authentic, and true to her personality. What makes Sai […]
