1. Your motto for occasion wear. It must suit your personality and have as much fun as you can while you are wearing it. 2. One essential statement style piece every woman must own? A signature scent. 3. A silhouette that you consider timeless. A sari never seems to fails. 4.A trend that needs to die. All of them. 5. A celebrity who embodies the Gaurav Gupta aesthetic, or is your muse and why? Deepika Padukone. She is effortlessly stunning and is a big star but at the same time a real down to earth person. She is the perfect combination that celebrates design. 6. Describe the perfect Gaurav Gupta bride. I think Devangi Nishar made the perfect bride. Someone who takes care of herself, practices yoga, travels frequently and listens to herself makes a GG bride. She makes her own choices and decisions and is not dictated by others. She also follows her own trends and has a personality like no other.

7. Your advice for brides-to-be on how to rock the cocktail night look. They should make a statement because this is the wedding function where they are seen the most, meeting, greeting, dancing and celebrating their big day. They can opt for a gown that is more costume like and have their own Gatsby moment. By the end of the night, let your hair down and have a lot of fun. With a round of cocktails ofcourse(chuckles). 8. Style tips for a destination bride? Don’t get obsessive with elaborative themes, you rather focus on the detailing. Find new destinations (chuckles). 9. A fun fact about you. I am a movie buff, especially love watching horror or fantasy movies. 10. Your fondest memory at Aza The first time I met Kalki Koechlin was at Aza where I had invited her for an exclusive collection preview at the store. She was wearing one of my dresses and look absolutely mesmerizing. We have been good friends since then. That was the beginning of many memorable friendships and relationships.
