Spring Of Glitz & Glam by Naisargi Devdher Spring Of Glitz & Glam 27 August 2022 COVER STORIES Advertisement In the midst of monsoon receiving a cup of hot tea is like reviving life on every corner of your stick nerves. Well, that’s exactly what Soniya Bansal seems to be presently grooving warmer than the cosy cover of your winter bed. From candidly being vocal about late teens and being surrounded by artists to her FASHION CUTS , it seems to be welcoming a new season of her in this article !!! From getting termed as an outsider to being recognised as a ‘Pageant’ the journey is filled with boundaries that need to be crossed over, these takes her through variety of experiences. “Experiences are not just to be categorized as really exuberating or bitter to face. I don’t actually take all of it very personally overloading it on my bosom, as it depends on how audience perceives a woman’s aura and character to be. Anyways, it’s now that I fathom the truth in various manners. Being a fresher, the experiences, however, were horridly cold as only response to inquiries made was meeting up people from various groups on being suggested to running doors for work. That’s the major difference today when I have work no one actually suggests meeting up rather they just walk up to my door with work in hand!” From engaging in moves to modelling for path breaking magazines and finally grooving the media for her very particular sense of fashion, she has blazed all the roles. Being a woman there are several words said directly or non-verbal language indicated to showcase certain level of discrimination, all of which are setbacks for an artist and that woman in particular. To which she simply smirked and nodded, continuing to express, “Being completely honest not just being a woman but a self-born star in this industries, I have faced several such questions and allegations that made me lose self-esteem and majorly I wanted to quit the industry. It was then when I realised that whatever field it be, the domination of pre-existing groups is extremely common. Then why should I digress from a field that I am already excelling in because certain mass number that doesn’t want to alter their perceptions! So I decide to move on with it.” Laughing over all of the jokes she gracefully said, “Knowledge is the key to every action of your life. Thus education is must.” In continuation she added, “I perused Master of Arts in Psychology, giving me liberty to understand people around observing artists around simply driving the motivating force within to act and become a model. There were no definite plans; it was just that I finally found what I am born for!!” The firm belief that she has in evolution of ideas from childhood to adulthood simplifies life when she exclaims, “It’s not necessary that all that we aspire to become as a child falls in our way like flowers in the path of Buddha! Those aspirations are going to change and we should welcome all our might because we do it for our personal profits!!!” Finding this thought queer and willing to converse about the numerous shifts it always wonderful to exaggerate the way she simply juggles between work life and personal life. To comment on which she put across the thought, “When I am active with my closed ones, I have the ability to survive a sinking ship. If one isn’t active in her personal life then how will she be active in her professional life? That’s the basic necessity to kick-off a career in an industry like ours. If one doesn’t have brain power then the other aspects just seem foggier than snow ranged mountains leading to vision and thoughts of self that aren’t visible clearly to people, they start despising you completely ending up in a cycle of regrets!” Mentioning about family, the society at large agrees that, nepotism to say has a magnanimous role in the industry. Soniya on the other hand, stands staunch in the industry today, neither has she had any Godfathers in the industry nor does she have any family member reaching the industry. In these circumstances in her accordance, there is always a need to have someone surrounding a fresher to support. The need arises from the past events of her life. She never had anyone to guide her way through to what acts to perform or work to look for, she had no option other than to work however talking about this day she knows the alternatives with all ends due to the life events, mistakes as well the success that she has achieved. Thus reinforcing, “The industry of films and theatre is an extremely difficult one to survive in!” However, only a fighter can survive through when one keeps struggling even when she has projects in hand because the fate can never be trusted, she might end up with zero projects one morning unknown of where to begin from or sometimes just clueless of audience’s approval of the work performed. The audience, however is a judge to everything, they also are variable deciders of schemas of body images that an industry portrays. Soniya, a fitness enthusiast elaborated on complete essence of work outs. “Due to work loads and several shifts, I do skip gyms for a day or certainly for a week if nothing progresses well, however, the moment I resume the sessions of muscle enhancers, I assure myself of stretching my limits to the farthest extent possible to cover up what I missed out on. This is also what makes me mentally fit as I am not worried about my health or overcoming injuries in general. As they say ‘A FIT BODY TRACES A FIT MIND’!! However, there is no assumed connection of body image and acting skills. For me at least, any person can act without having to worry about people body shaming him. That’s exactly what makes differences in tackling the negative outburst of audience. I believe in tackling such negative outbursts on meeting the critic rather than just a distinct criticiser who I probably would never even meet because that man sitting in some random corner of another city has no clue regarding my life. Particularly that is why for me, fashion is something that is classic and unique to me but also at the same time comfortable for me rather than revealing attire wore to impress the audience largely.” The simplicity with which she spoke about all of it is very similar to the simplicity with which she enacts a character. These characters have different underlying psyche, to acquire a role of those, she never utilises any substance that might justify the character however impact her negatively. Thus for her all roes hold equal importance and never does she take back the role with her. This congruence of her with the work life makes the reader flabbergast over so much about her choices and inspirations. “For me one actor I admire the most and always will is Shah Rukh Khan .” One might imagine what she carries along since childhood if she admires the legend Badshah since 90s’. No eye tear can be as magical as her innocent and honest words when she narrates, “I remember my dad explain me ‘BE WHOEVER YOU WISH TO, BUT NEVER LIE OR HURT ANYONE IN THE PROCESS OF BECOMING WHOEVER!!” Being humane none can resist but ask her to inspire youth being a role model not only because of her work and performances but also because of her intellect and temperament. “You know the youth needs to understand that Deepika Padukone has done critically acclaimed films to reach a state of worthiness and so has Ranveer Singh . He goes bare clothes for a shoot doesn’t actually mean the follower too should for gaining fame. That’s not how it works. Walk and act according to the situation. That makes them what they are. It will be the same for you too!” “EVEN DISNEY CAN’T RESIST THE CHARM OF FLOWER.

Zaki’s collection is a masterclass when it comes to storytelling and narratives, where each piece unfolds like a new chapter. The display showcased a visual journey which began from dark, structured silhouettes to softer, ethereal designs symbolizing resilience and renewal.

How To Build A Skincare Routine In Less Than 10 Minutes By Anushka Sharma How To Build A Skincare Routine In Less Than 10 Minutes 23 February 2024 LIFESTYLE Advertisement In today's fast-paced world, finding time for self-care can definitely feel like a luxury. However, taking care of your skin doesn't have to be time-consuming. This is a very important aspect of helping your skin be healthy for long, and with the right approach, you can build an effective skincare routine in less than 10 minutes that will leave your skin looking and feeling its best. Here's How To Do It: Know Your Skin Type: The first thing to know is whether you have dry, oily or combination skin. It’s important to know your undertones as well. Understanding your skin type is crucial for selecting the right products. Whether you have oily, dry, combination, or sensitive skin, tailor your routine to address your specific needs. Keep It Simple: Ideally, your skincare routine doesn’t need anything more than a cleanser, a moisturizer and a sunscreen. A minimalistic approach is key to a quick skincare routine. Stick to the essentials and see the magic happen. You can also go for a moisturiser. Never Forget Your Morning Routine: Start your day with a gentle cleanser to remove impurities accumulated overnight. Follow up with a moisturiser containing SPF to protect your skin from harmful UV rays. Sunscreen is non-negotiable, even on cloudy days. Hence, use it religiously and use it well. If you’re looking for a sunscreen to opt for, this mineral sunscreen will help you get a toned appearance and assist with UV protection. Stay Consistent: Your skincare routine will be very helpful if you stay consistent. Consistency is key to seeing results with any skincare routine. Make it a habit to cleanse, moisturize, and protect your skin every morning and evening, even on busy days. Listen To Your Skin If You See Any Adverse Changes: Pay attention to how your skin responds to different products and adjust your routine accordingly. If you notice any irritation or sensitivity, switch to gentler formulations or consult a dermatologist for personalized recommendations. Hydrate From Within: This is the most important element that you need to take care of. Remember that skincare isn't just about what you put on your skin—it's also about nourishing your body from the inside out. Drink plenty of water, eat a balanced diet rich in fruits and vegetables, and get enough sleep for healthy, radiant skin. Sleep is definitely non-negotiable. By following these tips, you can build a skincare routine that fits seamlessly into your busy lifestyle, leaving you with glowing, supple and healthy skin in less than 10 minutes a day. Remember, consistency and simplicity are key, so stick to the basics and listen to what your skin needs.

Male Fashion and Masculinity by Priti Sharma Male Fashion and Masculinity 8 November 2022 FASHION Advertisement Advertisement Advertisement “Fashion is knowing who you are, what you want to say, and not giving a damn.”- Orson Welles. A flower of creativity has blossomed in men’s fashion in recent years, igniting the menswear renaissance and refashioning archaic historical ideas of what it means to be masculine or feminine. In particular, feminine and masculine have been shaped and constrained by the gendered expectations of fashion: skirts and dresses are girly, whereas suits are for men; heels are for women, and sports or athletic gear is more masculine. This debate over who should wear what has persisted throughout history. Because of these harmful ideas about what it means to be a man, men are expected to dress nicely to be considered "truly masculine," or else they become weak, frail, feminine, or gay. But none of these terms—"feminine," "gay," "soft," or "fragile"—should ever be used as a derogatory epithet. “The ‘manly men’ are those who have the strength and courage to dress in whatever they are confident and comfortable with and most importantly of their preference.” For many centuries, the way men dressed was regulated—with strict guidelines—in terms of their position in the social hierarchy. Fashion has long been political and associated with power. Men in the seventeenth century were demonstrating traits of power when they appeared in flamboyant velvet and lace ensembles, caps decorated with ostrich feathers, and red-heeled shoes. The French Revolution ushered in significant change as well as the beginnings of more gender-neutral male attire. Male fashion these days follows different channels of transformation. The regular grooming of males is increasingly including makeup. The goal of skincare for men does not include making them seem attractive. In Western consumer shops, the moisturizer was formerly prohibited, but today it's ubiquitous, according to Gough. Along with other roles traditionally held by women, such as parenting and cooking, "makeup is one of the last bastions of femininity that males are creeping onto." Is the future of masculinity being defined by current trends in fashion? Probably, yes. Billy Porter's performance as "a living piece of political art" as he walked the Oscars red carpet in a tuxedo ball gown is evidence of the changes that have taken place, but when might those Hollywood fantasies come true for the average person? While certain Dusty Springfield-inspired miniskirts (from Charles Jeffrey) are regarded a tad "full-on," leopard print, neon, and "mirts"—men's skirts—are highlighted in British GQ's chart of menswear trends for Autumn/Winter 2019. Harry Styles utilizes the language of fashion to debunk common notions about what it means to be a man. Styles has now been able to modify the stereotypical image of conventional masculinity that the media marketed during his One Direction days as an ultra-male womanizer by changing his appearance. He cheerfully explains that he cherishes being in touch with his femininity as he openly flaunts nail paint, glittery suits, tutus, tiaras, and gowns today. No less of a man is Styles as a result of this. However, the boundaries imposed by toxic masculinity are starting to dissolve as menswear possibilities finally move away from this constricting gendered split. In December 2020, Styles became the first guy to appear alone on the cover of Vogue while proudly wearing a dress. Many people appreciated his cover, but it also sparked debate. In response, conservative writer Candace Owens tweeted, "There is no civilization that can thrive without strong males... Bring back the strong guys”. When he shared another image of himself posing for his Variety cover shot in a baby blue pleated suit with white ruffles and a V-neck cut, Styles deftly flipped her statements on their head by explicitly repeating them. His article exposes the toxic masculinity that permeates our culture and demonstrates the fact that a guy may define what it means to be "manly" for himself. Whether he is wearing a dress or not, he is still just as much of a man. Contrasted sharply with 19th-century fashion, which grew much more gender-specific, is this opulently masculine style. Men who wore skirts stopped wearing them once trousers became the norm. The "gentleman" was developed, and the suit developed into the pinnacle of masculine style, signifying male virility, power, and professionalism. In the modern office, menswear nearly always centers on the suit, which is often simple and dark in color. The tie, another not-so-subtle emblem of manhood, completes the look. However, the boundaries imposed by toxic masculinity are starting to dissolve as menswear possibilities finally move away from this constricting gendered split. While the western world is comfortable with women wearing trousers and male attire but a slight change in male fashion and beauty standards questions their masculinity. Because of cultural changes, there is no longer a harmful clothing code for being a guy. Even Daniel Craig attended the most recent James Bond premiere in a pink velvet suit. Daniel Craig's ability to dazzle the red carpet in a vision of pink illustrates just how much the idea of "manliness" has altered. As Harry Styles has demonstrated, being a man today can mean anything one wants it to mean. The'manly guys' are those who have the guts and strength to dress whatever they like. #MaleFashion #Masculinity #Feminine #Manly #Gender #GenderSpecific #BillyPorter #HarryStyles #Masculine #DanielCraig #Skincare #MakeUp SEARCH Why does Fashion Need Fashion Shows FASHION From Dreams To Crowns: Anuradha Garg’s Inspiring Mrs. India Story FASHION Colour Psychology in Fashion: Explained FASHION Legendary Female Icons Who Made Fashion Statements In The 20th Century FASHION The House of Chanel: History FASHION POPULAR POSTS Advertisement Advertisement Advertisement By Shriniwas Kodape The Snake That Wore Red: Inside The Vision Cultured™ Revolution 19 October 2025 FASHION By Sakshi Shah Francesca Bellettini Ushers In Gucci’s New Dawn 19 September 2025 FASHION By Shriniwas Kodape Dibba Studio: Weaving The Future Of Fashion At Thailand Fashion Week AW25-26 2 September 2025 FASHION By Shriniwas Kodape Aksstagga: Threads That Whisper Love, Memory, And Eternity 21 August 2025 FASHION RELATED POSTS Advertisement

K-Pop Fashion And Its Impact On Global Wardrobe by Yashi Srivastava K-Pop Fashion And Its Impact On Global Wardrobe 10 February 2023 FASHION Advertisement Advertisement Advertisement K-pop is more than a music genre in 2022. It is a wave, a trend, a bold choice of fashion coupled with luxury and serving looks! Korean pop music has its roots fixed in the 90s, but after the rise of artists like PSY and BTS, K-pop has taken over the global wardrobe, not just with its music but also fashion, style, and charisma. Why shouldn’t it? After all, K-pop idols are some of the most beautiful faces that you would come across. It is thus, not surprising to know that most of them are headlining several luxury fashion shows across the world and many have become the face of brands like Celine, Dior, Milan, Gucci, and more. So, how is K-pop influencing the wardrobe of the entire fashion world? We shall discuss the same in this article. The rise of K-pop fashion As mentioned already, it all began with during the early 90s when Seo Taiji and Boys created a concoction of South Korean tradition with western instruments and highlighted the same with stunning choreography! The world was in awe and since then, there's been no looking back for the music genre. With time, K-pop fashion promoted fashion accessories like bucket hats, loose fitting T-shirts and jeans, flannels, and more. By the late 90s, K-pop music soared since the term ‘idol’ was coined which led the musicians to become more than performers - they became celebrities and the global (wardrobe) domination of K-pop thus began. Currently, K-pop fashion dabbles between streetwear and sportswear off-stage and everything that’s luxury, starting from Gucci, Versace, Dior, Cartier, Celine, etc. The current popularity of K-pop fashion It is safe to consider K-pop fashion as one of the biggest trends of 2022. From baggy clothes to skirts, to anoraks, from Girls Generation being invited to 2012 Mulberry show in London to BTS attending the 2018 Billboard Awards in complete Gucci outfits - Korean pop culture fashion has certainly come a long way! It is not wrong to say that the digital media has played a prominent role in taking the K-pop popularity to a whole new level, not only in East- Asia and South-Asia but also the West. However, it is not just K-pop idols that have influenced the world wardrobe and have been a part of the global fashion world. Korean fashion brands such as Gentle Monster and Minju Kim are making waves across the world with their fresh styles and K-pop inclined clothing. In fact, popular brands like Adidas have now come up with merchandise that is completely influenced by the K-pop genre, and the sales are on an all-time high! The influence of K-pop idols in global fashion K-pop idols aren't just singers anymore - they are ambassadors of South Korean culture, style, and fashion - and the global fashion world is loving their charisma!

In fact, they can make or break a fashion trend within minutes and scream of luxury and charm in every sense of the word. It is thus, not uncommon for top fashion brands to seek out idols from K-pop groups like Blackpink, Twice, Aespa, Monsta X, TxT, Red Velvet, and more to promote their brand via advertisements and fashion shows. Why shouldn’t they? After all, K-pop idols are known for their extravagant sense of fashion loaded with high-end accessories and vibrant colors, both on hair and their outfits! However, their fashion isn’t only limited to the stage. From airport looks to casual outings, K-media has its eyes on them and most idols do not disappoint! And let’s not forget the influence they have on some of the most popular fashion brands, like Louis Vuitton, who moved an entire fashion show to Seoul, South Korea, only for the legends known as BTS to promote the brand. In fact, the collection was sold out within a few minutes of the event. BTS’ airport look, where they were dressed in LV clothes from top to bottom, also sold out within a few hours after photos were released online. While BTS have their own contribution in bringing the world’s attention to K-pop culture, it is the aestheri and eye-catching visuals of K-pop idols from several groups that keeps the genre’s popularity growing. EXO Kai for Gucci and Bobbi Brown, IU for Gucci, Red Velvet Irene for Prada, Blackpink’s Jisoo for Cartier and Dior, Aespa for Givenchy, EXO Sehun for Dior, are some of the popular K-pop names who are faces or brand ambassadors of some high-end luxury brands. Wrapping up K-pop idols, in recent times, have proven that they are way ahead of the curve in terms of fashion and media both, and they aren’t stopping anytime soon! So, get ready, because K-pop is and will be the moment for several coming years in trends, style, and of course, influential fashion. Blob - It is not just the outfit that defines fashion for K-pop idols. They are also about style that sends and spreads a message, the make-up that accentuates the beauty of the IDOL irrespective of the gender, and visuals that are as stunning as they can get. So, today we shall talk about K-pop and the way it is impacting global fashion! There is fashion with style and then, there is fashion with inspiration - K-pop delivers a bit of both and in a way, that you cannot take your eyes off of the idols.

And then there's Timur, or Tamerlane, the local hero who conquered half the world in the 14th century. You'll see statues of him everywhere, and trust me, he's kind of a big deal. Now, let's talk about the sights. Uzbekistan is a treasure trove of historic gems. From the breathtaking Registan Square in Samarkand to the mystical Shah-i-Zinda necropolis, you'll feel like you've stepped into a history book – but way cooler. And if you're a museum geek like me, you'll love exploring places like the Amir Timur Museum and the Museum of History of Uzbekistan. But it's not all about history – Uzbekistan is also a feast for the eyes! The Islamic architecture is out of this world, with dazzling mosques, mausoleums, and madrasahs at every turn. Seriously, you won't be able to stop snapping photos of the intricate mosaics and towering minarets. And let's not forget about the food – oh, the food! Plov, the national dish, is a hearty rice pilaf that'll make your taste buds dance. And then there's lagman, shashlik, manti, and so much more. Plus, you can wash it all down with some refreshing green tea – the perfect way to end a delicious meal. But what really makes Uzbekistan special is the people. They're some of the friendliest folks you'll ever meet, always ready with a warm smile and a helping hand. And if you're into shopping, you'll love browsing the bustling bazaars filled with handmade crafts and local treasures. Oh, and did I mention silk paper? Yeah, Uzbekistan is famous for that too. You can visit Koni Ghil village and see how it's made – it's like stepping back in time to a bygone era of craftsmanship and tradition. So there you have it – Uzbekistan in a nutshell. With its rich history, stunning architecture, mouthwatering cuisine, and welcoming people, it's the perfect destination for your next adventure. Trust us you won't be disappointed and will come with a pack full of memories and soveniers!

Van Cleef & Arpels At Tefaf 2025: Where Jewellery Meets Art By Anushka Uniyal Van Cleef & Arpels At Tefaf 2025: Where Jewellery Meets Art 22 March 2025 FASHION Advertisement Advertisement Advertisement Rihanna said it best, “Shine bright like a diamond.” And if there’s one thing that truly fits that description, it’s Van Cleef & Arpels . This legendary French jeweller is back at TEFAF 2025 —the Met Gala of the art and antique world—with a breathtaking lineup from its Heritage Collection. Imagine a 1955 turquoise and diamond necklace dripping in Old Hollywood glamour or a 1973 Anjou necklace that transforms into two bracelets. Think The Devil Wears Prada, but instead of fashion outfits, it’s all about handcrafted, gem-studded masterpieces. This collection isn’t just about beautiful jewellery, it’s about history, art and timeless elegance that keeps getting better with time. A Brand That’s Always In Style Before we step into the details of this stunning jewellery, let’s take a moment to appreciate Van Cleef & Arpels’ legacy. Founded in 1906 in Place Vendôme, Paris—aka the Rodeo Drive of fine jewellery—this brand has been the go-to choice for royalty, Hollywood stars and serious collectors for over a century. If you’ve ever admired Princess Grace of Monaco’s elegance or Queen Elizabeth II’s charm, chances are, Van Cleef & Arpels played a part. Elizabeth Taylor ? Check. Jackie Kennedy? Absolutely. Beyoncé ? Of course. This Maison has draped some of the most powerful and glamorous women in history in diamonds and gold! If diamonds are a girl’s best friend, Van Cleef & Arpels is basically the ultimate BFF! The Heritage Collection Launched in 2007, the Heritage Collection is where Van Cleef & Arpels brings its greatest work back to life. These are stunning pieces from the 1920s to the 1990s which are carefully revived and restored. Each piece goes through a serious glow-up process, a full check-up and just the right amount of polish to bring back its original sparkle and once a piece makes it into the Heritage Collection? Consider it a true masterpiece in the world of fine jewellery. Spotlight On The Showstoppers Necklace, 1955 Platinum, diamonds and turquoise—definitely something Marilyn Monroe or Audrey Hepburn would wear while sipping champagne. It captures the grandeur of 18th-century jewellery but feels fresh with its cabochon turquoise stones. And that pop of blue? Chef’s kiss. Marguerite Clip, 1964 Van Cleef & Arpels has always had a soft spot for nature, and this gold and emerald floral clip is proof. With delicately crafted petals that seem to be floating in a breeze, it’s a design that will never fade. Anjou Necklace, Transformable Into Bracelets, 1973 Who doesn’t love jewellery that does more than one thing right? This yellow gold and diamond necklace isn’t just stunning, it also transforms into two bracelets. Because why settle for one statement piece when you can have two? Orsay bracelet, 1994 Classy, structured and decked with rubies and diamonds, this bracelet is minimalist and meets maximalist. Inspired by the Maison’s signature Mystery Set technique, the gems create an illusion of uninterrupted sparkle. Why Tefaf Is The Place To Be TEFAF isn’t just another event; it’s where collectors, curators and serious jewellery lovers gather to admire some of the most extraordinary pieces ever made. This is where jewellery is more than gems and stones, it’s history, art and a story all packaged into one. Final Thoughts Some jewellery is just decoration. Van Cleef & Arpels is a legacy. Whether it’s an heirloom passed down through generations or someone’s dream purchase, every piece tells a story that goes beyond sparkle and shine. So, if you’re lucky enough to visit TEFAF 2025, make sure to take a moment to admire these iconic creations. After all, some things in life are priceless and Van Cleef & Arpels just happens to come with a price tag.

by Neha Pande by Neha Pande Queen’s Land 1 September 2020 TRAVEL Advertisement Advertisement Advertisement Queen’s Land also known as London has magic in its heart like Hogwarts and Fashion in its veins. From London Fashion week to Buckingham Palace, this place is a must visit for all travellers. The best time to visit is either spring when all the natural beauty comes to life like tiny dewdrops early morning or during Christmas to see the snow clad city with Santa’s magic and the beauty of British Christmas. Tourists are drawn to London’s museums, history, theatre, pubs and the beauty of the Queen’s Land. The only problems that tourists might face is that London is extremely expensive and it rains pretty often so carry your coats and umbrellas. London is known for many beautiful places to visit, yet tourists have 5 place on their list which everyone visiting London must visit- The Big Ben which is set in the heart of Parliament Squared and the Houses of Parliament. Big Ben is without a doubt the world’s most famous clock which is right next door to the equally famous Houses of Parliament with the House of Lords and House of Commons. The Tower of London and the Tower bridge, these two bridges have been used as synonyms all around the world but no the bridges are separate yet both beautifully constructed in their own ways. You’ll have to come to London to visit both the bridges and check out their difference in style. The Buckingham Palace, the Queen’s residence was built in 1703 as a house for 3rd Earl of Mulgrave but was purchased over in 1761 by King George III and since then it has harboured Royalties and Royal delegates. The Westminster Alley formally known as Collegiate Church is a large Gothic Abbey Church which is the perfect place to bring out the Goth in You. The church is just nearby the Palace of Westminster which is something which one must check out. It’s the perfect place for some fun Gothic Photoshoot. Trafalgar Square is in the heart of London and is a large pedestrian square with the beautiful statue of Admiral Lord Nelson on a large Collin with four statues of lions around him. This square celebrates the Battle of Trafalgar fought in 1805. One of the best features of this square is the National Art Gallery facing it. Other than that you need to go Museum hopping to satisfy your intellect and London is known for its museums and artefacts from all around Europe. Many museums like Tate, City Museums , National Gallery, Historical museum are free! So you don’t have to spend a single penny to visit! Theatres, authentic and fusion delectables, Brick Lane for pictures, The London eye, Cathedrals etc are other things you can not miss if you are in London. You especially can not miss the beautiful gardens and pubs for some amazing selfies, fun and booze. If you are visiting London then the main mode of transportation are subways or buses, if you feel like spending a bit more than you can take cabs but it’s better to get a subway card if you are visiting for a while and splurge the savings on shopping as London is also known as one of the shopping centrals so don’t miss out a chance to shop for top brand clothing which are in style. The best way to visit London or any other city is to explore and to talk to the locals. Locals know more about the city than the internet can ever tell you. So explore, interact and have fun!

The Influence Of Kanye West On Fashion by Priti Sharma The Influence Of Kanye West On Fashion 11 December 2022 FASHION Advertisement Advertisement Advertisement All of us are familiar with Kanye West's outrageous outbursts. Like when he climbed the stage and took Taylor Swift's microphone, or when he declared his intention to run for president in 2020. Although Kanye West has made several odd statements, he has had the greatest impact on modern fashion because of his distinct aesthetic from other rappers' aesthetics, his real effect on sneaker culture, and how rappers define masculinity as a whole. Rapper Kanye West stood out among others for his sense of style. Kanye used thinner clothing, whereas the majority of rappers before him had a more "thug"-like aesthetic. With the elegance of a bull in a Givenchy shop, Kanye West challenged the hip-hop fashion establishment. The self-described "slave to fashion" stood apart from his contemporaries when he first entered the rap industry in 2002. The Chicago MC deviated from the typical look of rappers, who were often dressed in tall tees, enormous sports jerseys, and baggy pants. Instead, he wore Ralph Lauren polo bears and backpacks. Although Kanye is not the first rapper to defy fashion conventions or wear pink, the Louis Vuitton Don paved a previously unheard-of road into the realm of high-end design. The multi-hyphenate has transformed into a respectable fashion hero thanks to stunts like his listening party/fashion show held at Madison Square Garden and connections with industry figures like Riccardo Tisci, Anna Wintour, and Phoebe Philo. However, this visionary's creativity goes beyond only introducing thinner fits to hip-hop. Since he persuaded youngsters to wear those godawful shutter sunglasses and ask their parents to purchase them Air Yeezys, Kanye's influence on the fashion world and the youth has been clear. With the ballerina-filled ingenuity of Runaway, he later exposed street youngsters to Phillip Lim on his own. Rap fans saw The Throne debut various Givenchy collaborations, including leather kilts and album artwork, demonstrating how individualism and creative expression triumph over outdated gender conventions. At Coachella, Kanye purposefully disregarded gender stereotypes by donning a women's Celine top, redefining masculinity in hip-hop. Of course, haters frequently question the rapper's sexuality because of the widespread homophobia in the genre. However, Kanye has never let criticism get to him. He is doing more than merely dispelling the erroneous link between sexual desire and skirts by dressing in gender-neutral attire. A$AP Rocky, Young Thug, and Jaden Smith are just a few of the expressive, progressive young musicians he is giving the world. Thugga has no qualms about saying that "90 percent of my clothing are women's," and Jaden celebrates gender fluidity in his most recent Louis Vuitton advertisements, thanks in part to Yeezy's creation of safe places for males to dress however the hell they want. Even rappers A$AP Rocky and Kendrick Lamar have acknowledged The Life of Pablo MC as having a significant influence on their sharply tailored clothing. Not to add, it's impossible to go five blocks in downtown NYC without seeing ten Yeezy impersonators. Even if some people don't like Kanye's so-called rants, he has a point when he says, "I am so credible, so important, and so relevant that I will alter things." And he has that. Regardless of how often his Yeezy designs are criticized, Kanye is a visionary with the ability to alter how people dress. Beyond the mic, he is amazing. He has become one of the most important people in the world of fashion because of his constant dominance in the fashion world. And, buddy, the youngsters are making notes. #KanyeWest #HipHop #Fashion #Rappers #Yeezy #LouisVuitton #Givenchy SEARCH Why does Fashion Need Fashion Shows FASHION From Dreams To Crowns: Anuradha Garg’s Inspiring Mrs. India Story FASHION Colour Psychology in Fashion: Explained FASHION Legendary Female Icons Who Made Fashion Statements In The 20th Century FASHION The House of Chanel: History FASHION POPULAR POSTS Advertisement Advertisement Advertisement By Shriniwas Kodape The Snake That Wore Red: Inside The Vision Cultured™ Revolution 19 October 2025 FASHION By Sakshi Shah Francesca Bellettini Ushers In Gucci’s New Dawn 19 September 2025 FASHION By Shriniwas Kodape Dibba Studio: Weaving The Future Of Fashion At Thailand Fashion Week AW25-26 2 September 2025 FASHION By Shriniwas Kodape Aksstagga: Threads That Whisper Love, Memory, And Eternity 21 August 2025 FASHION RELATED POSTS Advertisement
