My fashion cues come from my work, not the ramps of the world. I just keep working with so much colour, texture and structure, it rubs off!

I just wanted to say that there is so much goodness in the world. We keep looking at the terrible and diabolical things when we open newspapers.

I don't think I have a sense of fashion. But I do have an aesthetic, which I feel is an offshoot of me working in the design industry. For example, if I am mixing and matching prints on my sofas and cushion covers, I tend to do that with my wardrobe as well.

After sitting for two to three hours at a stretch, my feet just swell up. So I try to walk as much as I can.

I just became less rebellious with clothes, and today, I can slip into appropriate attire according to what the occasion requires, but off the red carpet, I am not that particular about what I wear, and comfort is my main priority.

I like to see the world from different levels. Even when I'm making a candle or designing a piece, I like to sit on the floor to polish or make it from scratch. I haven't seen really tough times, but my husband has come up the hard way. He has even seen poverty.
