Ice cream with
Anaita Shroff Adajania

Since having a conversation over
coffee is too mainstream, I caught hold of Anaita while she was enjoying an ice
cream. You hardly tend to find people who commute oh so perfectly with
Bollywood and the Fashion industry . The fashion director for Vogue India has
styled for all my favourite actors , not just worked with them but gave them a
complete image makeover , ( Ash in Dhoom , Deepika in cocktail)10 th October 2014
Me : You have worked with all my
Favourite people in the industry but who is your personal favourite ?
Anaita: I only work with people I love, and who inspire me. So I’ll have to say all the people I dress.
Me : Not many people switch perfectly
from working in both industries ( ie mainstream bollywood and the fashion
world) , but does your heart reside in one ?
Aniata : My heart and creativity lies
with fashion . I m more myself , in the fashion industry whereas in a film ,
the director keeps on giving in insights and the actor’s opinions also count.
Me: Women like Grace coddington are
still working at the age of 71, do you think you ll be working a few decades
later?
Aniata : Well it’s easy for me not to
work(smiles). I could be with my family at a beach , painting , cooking or just
shopping . I like keeping busy and I love what I do , so as per now no plans
for retirement.
Me: So lastly what are some tips you’d
like to give all the aspiring stylist out there?
Aniata : Firstly , love and live
Fashion , read loads of fashion magazines and trend reports. Second , assist a
stylist ,there is no better way rather than to assist someone who is great at
what they do. Building a portfolio is also a must and lastly build relations ,
its always good to stay connect and know the people that you ‘ ll probably work
with in the future.
And alas , her ice cream finished and
it was time for me to head back from the Dream world that Aniata stays in and
back to reality . But I did leave with my head filled with notions of where I
want to end up.
