I went for a dekho to "Project Seven" yesterday, an exhibition inspired by the Seven Chakras of Shakti.... Life, Order, Wisdom, Love, Power, Imagination & Understanding . To be honest, I hardly found any connect between the "Chakras" bit and what they had to offer at the exhibit, however it didn't really matter to me and hundreds of people who thronged Sunville Banquets (Worli) as it was indeed a wonderful place to shop for some great clothing, footwear, accessories and home products.
My personal favorites were: Valliyan by Nitya, Salamat Husain's photography,10am by Anjali Malhotra & James Ferreira.
First up, Valliyan by Nitya...her accessories in semi precious stones stood out like no other. Her sense of colors, style & putting together these gorgeous pieces is quite unique. I picked up a maang tikka from her. Its a contemporary version of the good 'ol accessory that women have worn for centuries in India. Cant wait to put it on my next outing :) Her work is available at several high-end stores in Mumbai as well as online on www.perniaspopupshop.com
Salamat's photo exhibit was a beautiful symphony of pictures captured and strewn together in a sublime thread of equanimity. In particular I liked the picture of this girl dancing in the middle of a square somewhere in Cappadocia with a beautiful multicolored ensemble (reminiscent of a Manish Arora outfit) In fact, this was the picture that attracted me in a newspaper to read about this exhibit in the first place!

All in all, a great view of some of the most interesting work that independent, creative entrepreneurs are doing. There is sooooo much talent out there and to see it all under one roof was just fabulous!!! :) here's hoping for many more ....

James Ferreira, what can I say about the maestro! His unique and unconventional cuts suit every bit of my sensibilities. He makes the garment look effortlessly chic' and flattering to the body at the same time...i picked up a lovely white top from him
