One has mastered the mix of prints, while another
is all about ’80s glamour—what unites these Indian
women is their love for the dramatic

HOME TURF


The food entrepreneur’s wardrobe is fi lled with past and
present Gucci and vintage family heirlooms.
My style: “Moody and insouciant. Maximalism is all
about having fun. It’s about clashing a few prints and not
having matching shoes and bags. It’s time to be sartori-
ally adventurous!”
Label love: “Àcheval Pampa, Celine, Jacquemus and
Gucci. I want everything from Alessandro Michele’s Gu-
cci collections—he is the master of maximalism!”
Infl uencer: “Zandra Rhodes in her time. I’ve inherited a
lot of vintage pieces and I am enamoured by her designs.”
Spring/summer 2019: “For the summer, I’m most ex-
cited about some quality time with my family on holiday,
somewhere remote. Fashion-wise, I can’t wait to get my
hands on Sabyasachi’s new runway collection.”

If it is OTT, it is in her wardrobe. Accessory designer Sanya
V Jain has a love for logos. For proof, you only have to look
at her portrait, where she wears gilded Dries Van Noten,
platform Gucci shoes, and layers of diamond frosting.
Your sartorial motto?
“I love to dress joyfully and play with different colours and
prints. Dressing up is like an art: to each his own painting. I
believe in “more is more and less is a bore!”
Your prized possessions?
“Vintage Chanel suits, Alexander McQueen silk blouses and
Valentino printed dresses are irreplaceable. Currently, I love
Gucci—Alessandro Michele is [to maximalism] what Phoebe
Philo was to minimalism. I love Delpozo and Sara Battaglia
for their bold, illusion-led styles. I’m obsessed with Chanel
and Hermès handbags; I treat them like works of art.”
What does fashion need more of?
“I think everyone wants their own unique style and one-of-
a-kind wardrobe. Personalisation and curation have become
more important to the customer. By choosing to go bespoke,
we can pass these pieces from generation to generation.”
