Understanding your body is the key to looking good and a trait found amongst all impeccably dressed fashionistas. While people shy away from talking about their bodies, these brave souls explain how they work their anatomies to their advantage

 

How would you describe your personal style?

I would say I’m quite versatile when it come to my personal style, but I like to keep it simple yet chic. I believe less is more.

How has your style changed over the years?

My style has definitely changed over the years, as a teenager my mom would decide for me but as the years passed my style kept evolving according to the trends. Now it is more of what I feel good in.

What do you carry effortlessly eastern or western wear?

Actually both, from wearing our traditional shalwar kameez to any western outfit. I love dressing up.

 

How do you dress your body according to your body type?

Since I’m tall and thin I just love experimenting with different styles and cuts. My all time favourite is sleek pants with a nice top and a nice pair of shoes.

In your opinion what is the biggest mistake a person can make while dressing here?

I’m quite observant when it comes to clothes and I see many girls making a similar mistake of wearing outfits that do not compliment their body type or age.

Which silhouettes suit your body the most?

In order to create a flattering silhouette I like monochrome the best. One can never go wrong with that.

 

What is the one piece of clothing that you shy away from wearing and why?

From wearing our traditional outfits to all western wear I’ve never been unconditional but yes ruffles and frills are my least favourite.

What’s the basic mistake girls make while choosing a silhouette for themselves?

As a designer the most common problem I see with most girls is that trends are being followed blindly
