India is shining
India is shining. Our classic culture, resilient economy and stylish Bollywood is a voice of inevitable hope for the rest of the world. With Suzy Menkes of the International Herald Tribune (who is in Delhi for the IHT Luxury Summit) handpicking Namrata Joshipura, Rohit Gandhi & Rahul Khanna and Manish Arora's shows to drop in for, Indian fashion couldn't be in a better place right now.
Namrata's nonchalant approach could easily help her get away with murder. But the diminutive designer's resolve fell apart when Suzy visited her backstage to compliment her on showing her a new India, bursting with a pot pourri of possibilities. "She turned the garments inside out to check for finish. She said she was amazed to see the workmanship on leather. India can still afford handmade luxury, Suzy said," Namrata shared.
