The saree is undoubtedly the best outfit for a woman. There, I said it. But before you roll eyes at me or subject me to vitriolic comments that stem from (and rightfully so) the dislike of atavistic traditions that should have been nipped in the patriarchal bud, hear me out. I like the saree because […]
Brocade styles by Sobariko, Payal Khandwala, Anita Dongre Whoever said life comes back a full circle kept in mind the popularity of brocades. The classic shuttle-woven fabric owes a majority of its admiration to Banaras, where they became a hub. Think coloured silk, regardless of them being gold and silver threads, that is handwoven to perfection. These […]
Wedding Guest Looks inspired by Shraddha Kapoor, Athiya Shetty, Janhvi Kapoor and more Big fat Indian weddings have always been a stylish affair – for both the bride and the guests.

If not the colour, silhouette or the embellishments that inspires us to buy the outfit, it’s the labels, more often than not. Sure, there’s more than meets the eye (literally), but there’s an inexplicable joy in including your favourite designers into […]
Diana Penty, Janhvi Kapoor, Ananya Panday – Diwali Looks Sure, Diwali may be officially over, but we’re still left with its lingering spirit. And just like the infamous delicacies, the hangover of who-wore-what stays. Some keep true to their minimal aesthetics and resort to fail-proof ethnics, like anarkalis, while some decide to go all out […]

Radhika Apte in Torani – Rs 48,000 It’s observed that most modern Indian women gravitate towards chicer, elegant silhouettes, even when it comes to ethnic wear.

This season, we propose you look […]
