I just got back from a lovely afternoon with Pria Kataria Puri, where we discussed what she was putting up for Summer 2012. Her collection, that is now at Samsaara holds a bevy of colourful kaftans and over the knee dresses that will suit any body type. She’s gone with bright colours for summer and tells us that a orange/yellow colour dress and big, big sunglasses are what every girl must have in her wardrobe this summer!
I also met up with some other fashionable people at the event, who looked very very summer chic, I couldn’t get enough of their style. Preeti Chandra who is also retailing out of Samsaara was there dressed in one of her more couture pieces from her summer collection. Guess what? It’s a bright neon yellow dress, didn’t I just tell you neons were in?! Well she’s going full throttle with her collection of vibrant neons and she agrees with me, they are THE thing for the summer.
Along with her was Zoya Morani, who was also in a Preeti Chandra gown looking effortlessly stylish, especially with that fun collar. Both ladies shared with me that a collar is the one piece of jewellery to have in your kit this season.
I spotted Sangeeta Khanna and James Ferreira when I walked in and immediately knew that Sangeeta was wearing a James dress. She paired her dress with jewellery from her own label called Taara, we love the raw quality her pieces have. Also each piece she makes is bespoke so you’re guaranteed a one of a kind piece.
Psst! another cute and funny thing I learned at the event was that James Ferreira has lost his phone 53 times! He’s also been known to leave behind his Gucci bags, I was joking around with him that he can misplace his bags around me anytime!
