I’m always out to sniff up the next big fashion label or designer. When I heard about Shilpa Reddy, I was a bit curious – what does a former model have to offer? So off I trotted to AMARA with Khyati our in-house photographer in tow.

Browsing through the racks of gorgeous clothes – I could see they were understated yet elegant. You could see she was passionate about each piece and that nothing missed her eye. An errant pallu on the mannequin was quickly rectified. That’s what you call a sharp eye and attention to detail.

I have picked the top 5 pieces from her collection. Looking through you can see that Reddy has an affinity towards jackets. All her pieces are very versatile and can be worn either as or with western silhouettes.
