Sustainable New Year with Anavila, Ka-Sha, Anita Dongre Grassroot and more Wasn’t it March, like, yesterday? Another year flew by like the wind. As we bid adieu to the shitshow that 2020 has been, we’re looking forward to starting the new year on a good note. There has never been time better than this to turn […]
I don’t know about you, but I can’t seem to remember the time when spending a Saturday night at home with friends having a house party was a choice made by our adulting selves. With workspace and ‘chilling’ space melting into one big blob of same, it’s become increasingly difficult to choose what to wear […]
They say every dark cloud has a silver lining. If that’s true, then the quarantine period has many. The surprisingly positive (and perhap the only positive) of the COVID-19 pandemic is the substantial reduction in the otherwise ever-rising pollution levels.

Whether she’s making gota-patti encrusted […]

Trends come and go (and come and go) but some of them are just to close to our hearts to be discarded. Be it our need to channel our inner animalistic instincts or to feel […]
Coming from the age-old tradition, Bandhani fabric stands out to be one of the most beautiful fabrics till date.

Styles to buy for 2024 – Tie-dye, Gold highlights, Organza sarees, Sculpted pieces What. A. Year. It’s ironic how a single year, correction, nine months, can influence a 360-degree change of lifestyle.
