November Chic-ster

Chic-ster !                             It's November rain time and fall season changes into winter in certain corners of the globe. For those cold slewn areas I present the 'chic-ster' from my newest works.                                        This dress is cut from a handwoven shawl sold by Himjoli NGO from uttarakand. I stumbled upon it at the jaipur literature festival. Of course the colours and the texture spoke to me and I saw 'potential'. 
I finally worked with the fabric in early August this year,  and I am delighted with the end result and  Zeenat duberia is wearing it with a dash of effortless elegance - just the way clothes ought to be worn.  Love, di.di xo                          photo credits - Nasir                   Make up and hair - Akram                        Model - Zeenat duberia

Destiny's child



It's a great time to have the creative eye, which I always had! When I signed up for the May Queen title, I scoured for my outfit- and found a 'high neck' beaded black gown with a thigh high slit in the front. My shoes was a four inch black court shoe from regal shoes and sheer leggings to give a gloss look for the stage. My hair, was pulled back in a high chignon. I always broke the boundaries in my dressing sense, and listened to my inner compass - this is an archive picture of me as the May Queen. I didnot ask for my parents permission to participate, I just signed up on my own initiative, because it's was my inner belief in myself always-to try the realm of the unknown and to push myself - and conquer fear! Failure is not to be run away from - but to run towards, head on! And win- the world belongs to winners......and the same when I faced an 8000 people crowd and won the navy queen title, wearing an off shoulder gown with boning, faux diamond choker and white net gloves, very lady di - whose style I love!
