See, I just don't want to starve at my wedding. So, my dream wedding is one where I get to eat a meal while everyone else enjoys themselves as well.
Quote by -Masaba Gupta
A piece that is extremely close to my heart is a gold ring with bouts of mint and baby pink that my grandfather gave to my mother and she passed it down to me. What's sweet is that it has my grandparent's name on the flipside.
Quote by -Masaba Gupta
Athleisure is a cool concept and something I have always wanted to work with.
Quote by -Masaba Gupta
I have changed drastically because I allow myself to not just grieve and feel down.
Quote by -Masaba Gupta
I grew up thinking I was inferior to white-skinned people. And as a child if you are conditioned like this, it becomes a part of your upbringing that you believe that probably because I look like this, I won't get anywhere in life.
Quote by -Masaba Gupta
Fashion is one industry that can really change things around for young boys and girls and make them feel like they are not left out. It can send a message that one doesn't have to look a certain way to be considered more beautiful or fashionable.
Quote by -Masaba Gupta
You know, all these fancy, detailed diets work only if you are sitting at home doing nothing. If you are working, where is the time to whip up food again and again?
Quote by -Masaba Gupta
Designer labels, throughout the history of fashion, have maintained an air of exclusivity around themselves. Call it hype, criticize it if you will. But fashion has used this 'exclusive' tag to make itself coveted.
Quote by -Masaba Gupta
Once upon a time, fashion was complex, and ostentatious was considered better.
Quote by -Masaba Gupta
When I was growing up, I always saw brides around me under tremendous stress. The pressure to dress a certain way, wear a certain amount of jewelry and make-up... I saw how uncomfortable it was. So I decided that, if I do get married, I'll be someone who puts comfort first, and then looks at her options for cut, color, embroidery or jewelry.
Quote by -Masaba Gupta
Can we first take care of our 'brown lives matter' in India and then worry about the U.S.? I find it bizarre that racism that is done so far away from home it is creating such an uproar. Look at the kind of racism people who are dark skinned in our country have to face.
Quote by -Masaba Gupta
As a kid I had major issues with my skin, so I never experimented much with beauty.
Quote by -Masaba Gupta
My body structure ensures that if I do not watch what I eat, my weight tends to spiral crazily out of control.
Quote by -Masaba Gupta
I played professional tennis for about six years and I played football and handball in school as well.
Quote by -Masaba Gupta
I wanted to be a musician and studied vocals in London for a year and then I gave it up.
Quote by -Masaba Gupta
It's hard to tell if fashion will hold on to its 'exclusive' attitude, or change completely. Only time and Instagram will tell.
Quote by -Masaba Gupta
Everyone has a perception if you are divorced. I got so busy with work that I didn't even have the time to realize what was happening in my personal life. I had my own way of dealing with it.
Quote by -Masaba Gupta
I was born in the Eighties, and at that time the idea of having a mixed-race child wasn't welcome. Then I was also an unusual mix nobody was used to seeing. So people weren't very accepting of me in the beginning, but later that changed.
Quote by -Masaba Gupta
Pair kurtas with cigarette pants, formal pants or palazzos for a more relaxed yet classy look.
Quote by -Masaba Gupta
As with any outfit, the primary elements of normcore are fit, color, and texture, all of which must match both normcore's loose silhouette, and at the same time, suit your body. Above all else, it's about comfort. So if it doesn't look effortless and easy, it's not normcore.
Quote by -Masaba Gupta
When I made my debut, I remember bridalwear being the only thing you ever showed at a runway presentation.
Quote by -Masaba Gupta
I'm a huge fan of Netflix and its storytelling and couldn't be more excited to make my debut with such a strong creative partner.
Quote by -Masaba Gupta
Anxiety is a trap; it's not a trend to be followed. It's not supposed to be cool, it's meant to be fixed.
Quote by -Masaba Gupta
My job as a designer is done when my clothes inspire freedom in Muslim women to adopt fashion the way they desire.
Quote by -Masaba Gupta
Mine was the most usual upbringing, I swear! I knew a girl who could only wear full-sleeved clothes. They had weird restrictions. My life was great.
Quote by -Masaba Gupta
Weight-gain brings with it a number of health issues, but at some point you just realise that you want to live longer, eat healthier. You don't want to be out of breath when you climb a flight of stairs.
Quote by -Masaba Gupta
Every time I attempt something feminine, I can't resist adding Amazon-inspired designs.
Quote by -Masaba Gupta
Normcore doesn't equal wearing the first pair of jeans and T-shirt from your wardrobe. Behind dressing easy, lies a precise selection.
Quote by -Masaba Gupta
Combine leather pants or leggings with an oversized sweater or turtleneck and sneakers for a super-chic look. However, remember to keep the colors subtle.
Quote by -Masaba Gupta
Tribal designs are a part of my heritage. It boils down to the influences from my father, Viv Richards' side.
Quote by -Masaba Gupta
I want to set an example and say that you don't need to wear a certain color, a certain type of maang tika; your hair doesn't have to look a particular way.
Quote by -Masaba Gupta
Very little thought goes into making this stuff I make. It is on impulse. I think of colors all day and suddenly if I think of ice blue, I wonder if red or yellow will go with it.
Quote by -Masaba Gupta
According to me, the key is 'less is more.' For instance, if the print is the star of your outfit, don't accessorize too much. And if you have a gorgeous piece of jewellery, allow it to shine through.
Quote by -Masaba Gupta
Embrace your vulnerability and celebrate your flaws; it will let you appreciate the world around you and make you more compassionate.
Quote by -Masaba Gupta
I agree the SS 2014 collection from my own line comprising knee pads and polka dots didn't feel too good but I'm proud of the fact that it was original.
Quote by -Masaba Gupta
If someone would tease me about my hair, I would laugh... if someone called me black, I would laugh. I just took things in my stride. I was never made a victim.
Quote by -Masaba Gupta
At the end of the day, the real goal of fashion is to create clothes that make you feel as comfortable as possible, inside and out - no matter what your gender.
Quote by -Masaba Gupta
Men aren't really conscious about what they wear. They are more interested in the fit and comfort and they don't want to wear anything that's too outlandish, so I think it will take me some time to start a menswear line.
Quote by -Masaba Gupta
I used to have a Milton steel water bottle that I would wield like a hammer, almost! My answer to all my bullies was to take out my bottle and hit them.
