Style according to you is

Just being myself.

Five items in your closet you can’t do without

A pair of blue jeans, a white shirt, a gold corset, a black dress and saris.

What do you like to mix-and-match?

I mostly wear Patiala pants with ganjis, long skirts with shirts and kundan earrings with my dresses.

You have a fetish for…

Shoes and earrings.

If money were no object what would you add to your closet?

A sari collection from Sabyasachi and Raj Mahtani’s jewellery.

Indian designers whose creations you love wearing

I love Sabyasachi’s creations especially because of the colours and textures he uses, Rohit Bal for the cut and fitting of his garments and Wendell Rodricks for his drapes.

Which character out of history would you like to dress as?

It would have to be Marie Antoinette as I love her gowns.

One aspect of fashion that bugs you most…

Following fashion rather than creating it.
