Marking the onset of the couture season, the issue sets the tone of Big Indian Wedding Revelry. From fashion layouts to stylists’ picks, we’ve got you covered to set the ‘wedding planning’ ball rolling.
The issue’s cover star, Kriti Sanon — an actor who made it to the top league with the massive success of her latest film, Mimi — converses with The Peacock Magazine about her journey starting her career as a model to making it to the top league. The star, who is basking in the success, also talks about how she deals with her vulnerabilities and how she takes competition positively.
Celebrity stylists Shaurya Athley and Pranay Jaitly and Shounak Amonkar of ‘Who Wore What When’ catalogues their best bridal picks from Falguni Shane Peacock ensembles for a spectrum of wedding functions. Our editor-in-chief, Falguni Peacock also picks her season’s favourites in couture for brides and grooms. #FSPbride Ashmit Kohli tells us how her stars were aligned to don a custom Falguni Shane Peacock Lehenga at her ring ceremony.
The issue has a special guest interview of a stalwart for the designing realms — Gabriele Chiave, creative director of Marcel Wanders studio. Chiave takes some time out to speak about his design philosophy and his life at the studio. Following close, we have feature stories on eminent personalities from around the world and India who have made a mark in their respective fields of work. Next up, we have jewellery enthusiast-turned-editor and fashion stylist Priyanka Parkash Sachdeva who enlists the world’s most exquisite couture perfumes in a detailed article.
