Anju Modi (TOI Photo) More picsWhat happens when a well-known fashionista steps into town?
A fashion frenzy, what else? Something similar happened when well-known fashion designer Anju Modi was in Ahmedabad to showcase her outifts for a fashion show.
Anju who originally belongs to Rajasthan and later moved to Delhi, works extensively in the field of Indian heritage textiles for women.Having visited Ahmedabad several times in the past, Anju feels inspired to visit the city again and again to delve into the city���s rich handicrafts and textile scenario. As far as Ahmedabad���s fashion scenario is concerned, she feels that the city has developed quite a fashion sense in the recent past and that she really respects the Gujarati community as they don���t mind spending but they mind wasting.
���They are very smart and astute about their expenses. I have observed that Amdavadis are as trendy as people from any other cosmopolitan city in India,��� he says.
Anju believes in designing garments that look different every time when teamed up with something new. ���I like to style dresses that last for years. India is a tropical country and as there is not much variation in the temperature, so one doesn���t really need to change one���s wardrobe much.
I like to recycle clothes. For starters if you team a particular top with pants, salwar or skirt, this can change the entire look and you can easily look different and creative every time,��� says Anju. So what is the fashion quotient this summer? ���This summer handloom fabrics, khadi, cotton and matka silk are the best picks to look cool and trendy,��� says the fashionista signing off.
