❤️‍🔥 Body & Soul for @vogueindia March issue w the one & only @menonlakshmi ❤️‍🔥 I remember when I first saw Lakshmi Menon. It was around 2007, in an ad campaign (for Hermès, I think) in a magazine I was thumbing through. I was 15 & I was floored by her. I had never seen an Indian beauty like her reflected in the fashion imagery I had grown up consuming. After a hiatus from modelling & becoming a mother, I’m so thrilled Menon agreed to return to Vogue India as our March cover star. Her lithe elegance & Keralan beauty is the perfect pairing for the homage we make to the sari 🥻. ❤️‍🔥 Photographed by @ashishisshah beauty by @miteshrajani Styled by me with special & huge thanks to super ⭐️ @rupangigrover & of course @chloechou13 💘 Researching the🥻visually & culturally was so inspiring & my friend @behavebandana penned a beautiful essay that’s a must read. ❤️‍🔥
