Designer Kiran Uttam Ghosh took a walk around the stalls after unveiling the Utsav exhibition on Tuesday. With Rakhi round the corner, she picked up a pair from Traditions for Rs 35. “A rakhi should be classic and timeless. I prefer them simple,” she said. Her other pick was a chic red velvet box clutch with ethnic embroidery from Anupama for Rs 1,700 (picture below). “It looks great. It’s Indian and it’s the right size. You can pair it with anything!” added Kiran.
