“I love a piece with history, like these 18K gold-on-brass earrings that have been created with coins from different eras and regions. Each piece is made in limited quantities, by artisans in Jaipur, using an ancient, ‘lost-wax’ casting method. In the style stakes, this currency won’t ever lose its value.” Earrings, ₹12,500
“This Mulberry silk, ruffled bustier has been hand-woven by Assamese weavers, and is reminiscent of Madonna’s iconic outfits from the ’80s. I love how this garment was created using traditional techniques, then transformed into a collectible for now.” Bustier, ₹6,996 One to Wear Now and Later Get It Now

I also like it for its scalloped, embroidered neckline, and how the delicate straps, sitting the way they are, will always draw attention to the collarbones, in a subtly-sexy way.” Set, ₹10,500 On Top Of the List!
