That being that, am especially excited about two speakers at the World Luxury Congress. One being the designer Manish Arora. And the other being Radha Chadha of Chadha strategy! Manish’s might be a familiar name but you’ve got to also know about Ms. Chadha.

Radha Chadha is one of Asia’s leading marketing and consumer insights experts having worked with leading advertising agencies like Ogilvy & Mather, Grey Worldwide etc. and then going onto establishing her own brand consultancy in 2000! And ever since her ‘The Cult of the Luxury Brand: Inside Asia’s Love Affair with Luxury’ was published, she has gone onto be a prolific speaker at conferences of those including Tiffany New York, LVMH Hong Kong and many many more!!

Aisa Bhi Hota Hai!


Miss England Georgia Horsley was asked to gain weight for the upcoming Miss World pageant. Yes people, you heard it right. Gain weight! That is what she was told.

The pageant organizers want “their girls to be more voluptuous and womanly and curvy, you know, rather than the stick-thin, size-0 models that you see around.”

Hallelujah.. there is a GOD!

Tannishtha Transformed


We caught Tannishta Chatterjee looking pretty good in an Alberta Ferretti black cocktail dress that she wore to the premiere of Brick Lane.


For a woman who wore clear bra straps(a big no no!) under a halter neck dress, she definitely has come a long way. Hopefully, all the international exposure will do good to her fashion style.
