Normcore doesn't equal wearing the first pair of jeans and T-shirt from your wardrobe. Behind dressing easy, lies a precise selection.

Every time I attempt something feminine, I can't resist adding Amazon-inspired designs.

Weight-gain brings with it a number of health issues, but at some point you just realise that you want to live longer, eat healthier. You don't want to be out of breath when you climb a flight of stairs.

Mine was the most usual upbringing, I swear! I knew a girl who could only wear full-sleeved clothes. They had weird restrictions. My life was great.

For women looking to dress up on a budget, a jacket is a good investment.

I think the evolution of Arya Stark's character has been incredible.

My job as a designer is done when my clothes inspire freedom in Muslim women to adopt fashion the way they desire.

Anxiety is a trap; it's not a trend to be followed. It's not supposed to be cool, it's meant to be fixed.

I'm a huge fan of Netflix and its storytelling and couldn't be more excited to make my debut with such a strong creative partner.

When I made my debut, I remember bridalwear being the only thing you ever showed at a runway presentation.

Tennis has so much glamour.

As with any outfit, the primary elements of normcore are fit, color, and texture, all of which must match both normcore's loose silhouette, and at the same time, suit your body. Above all else, it's about comfort. So if it doesn't look effortless and easy, it's not normcore.

Pair kurtas with cigarette pants, formal pants or palazzos for a more relaxed yet classy look.

I am young, and that reflects in my designs. I can't pretend to be 40.

I was born in the Eighties, and at that time the idea of having a mixed-race child wasn't welcome. Then I was also an unusual mix nobody was used to seeing. So people weren't very accepting of me in the beginning, but later that changed.

Everyone has a perception if you are divorced. I got so busy with work that I didn't even have the time to realize what was happening in my personal life. I had my own way of dealing with it.

It's hard to tell if fashion will hold on to its 'exclusive' attitude, or change completely. Only time and Instagram will tell.

I wanted to be a musician and studied vocals in London for a year and then I gave it up.

I played professional tennis for about six years and I played football and handball in school as well.

My body structure ensures that if I do not watch what I eat, my weight tends to spiral crazily out of control.

As a kid I had major issues with my skin, so I never experimented much with beauty.

Can we first take care of our 'brown lives matter' in India and then worry about the U.S.? I find it bizarre that racism that is done so far away from home it is creating such an uproar. Look at the kind of racism people who are dark skinned in our country have to face.

When I was growing up, I always saw brides around me under tremendous stress. The pressure to dress a certain way, wear a certain amount of jewelry and make-up... I saw how uncomfortable it was. So I decided that, if I do get married, I'll be someone who puts comfort first, and then looks at her options for cut, color, embroidery or jewelry.

Once upon a time, fashion was complex, and ostentatious was considered better.

Designer labels, throughout the history of fashion, have maintained an air of exclusivity around themselves. Call it hype, criticize it if you will. But fashion has used this 'exclusive' tag to make itself coveted.

You know, all these fancy, detailed diets work only if you are sitting at home doing nothing. If you are working, where is the time to whip up food again and again?

In India we have hundreds of skin tones and don't we need to show that?

Fashion is one industry that can really change things around for young boys and girls and make them feel like they are not left out. It can send a message that one doesn't have to look a certain way to be considered more beautiful or fashionable.

I grew up thinking I was inferior to white-skinned people. And as a child if you are conditioned like this, it becomes a part of your upbringing that you believe that probably because I look like this, I won't get anywhere in life.

I have changed drastically because I allow myself to not just grieve and feel down.

Athleisure is a cool concept and something I have always wanted to work with.

A piece that is extremely close to my heart is a gold ring with bouts of mint and baby pink that my grandfather gave to my mother and she passed it down to me. What's sweet is that it has my grandparent's name on the flipside.

See, I just don't want to starve at my wedding. So, my dream wedding is one where I get to eat a meal while everyone else enjoys themselves as well.

I am a big fan of players like Roger Federer, Andy Murray, Novak Djokovic and Leander Paes. I would love to see them play.

My friends were raised by their maids. They didn't see their fathers, who used to travel for work, and there were facades of family vacations. I have grown up to be completely intolerant of fake relationships. That's because of how my parents were.

I would love to design a car. And shoes, like funky Keds maybe.

My childhood had much clarity. I didn't see abuse. I didn't see my parents bickering. I didn't live in a dysfunctional family.

It's natural to want to have the things your peers do, adopting a lifestyle that lets you have the best of all worlds, but it's a trap. Don't let any person, thing or even a lifestyle have the power to control you. Learn to break free and be independent.

I work out five days a week with my personal trainer, who comes home and gets me cracking on my fitness routine.

Only you can give yourself the love you need and deserve.

I wanted to be anything but a designer. I was not willing to enroll into fashion school. It is just because that was the last resort and there was nothing else, I had to do it!

I literally grew up reading the papers about my existence... that I was a love child. To a kid, it doesn't make any difference. I always thought that if somebody can have an extramarital affair, someone can have a child out of wedlock.

I make and wear black and white for myself because it centers me.

I want to be the Tory Burch of India - never once moving from my aesthetic, but offering a story and putting a print on whatever I can.

Today I have learned how to channel my rage through fashion.

One thing we do, to be inclusive, is that when we shoot campaigns, we ensure to do so with models of different body types, skin colors and with those hailing from different cultures.

I think a lot of magazine covers are heavily photoshopped and bodies are distorted to look a certain way.

Home is where I shed my skin.

Homes are filled with who you are, as opposed to things.

I wanted to act since I was 14, but I was dissuaded by my mother for various reasons. She told me I would be stereotyped.
