Ranjha Sheesha Denim Jacket, Rs. 12,500
44.“A slouchy, collared shirt with a midi skirt in pure cotton is injected with a dose of marigold and Mughal flowers—perfect for a lazy afternoon. The screen-printed motifs and belt around the waist tie the look together in a gorgeous, girly way.”
Salina Top, `9,000, and Loulou Skirt, Rs. 11,000
55. Anita“Silk mojris are such a royal way to dress up the feet, and these ones are inspired by the forests of Ranthambore. The geometric design on the pair is accentuated with painterly trees, for footwear that’s so much more.”

66. Suket“Festive suits for women are utterly chic, and Suket has been a forerunner in this department for years. I love this fuschia, silk blazer that marries Benarasi brocade with ikat weaves. And if you look closely, you’ll see animals and a sports car in
there, too.”
Pantsuit, Rs. 48,510

of things.”

99. PERONA“I was never one for geometry while in school, but when I see a bag with such precision of lines and angles, it gets my nod of approval. The minimal, cross-body tote has a fold over flap with magnetic closure, shiny, polished nickel hardware, and hand-painted edges.
It’s almost like a work of art.”
Alexis Red Cross Body Bag, Rs. 11,500
