Saloni Lodha’s Indian heritage and nomadic lifestyle inspire her brand – the name of which means ‘beautiful’ in Sanskrit. Since launching in 2011, its collections have become known for vibrant colors, playful prints and flattering draped dresses. However, one of her absolute bestsellers is this velvet jumpsuit. No wonder why… it is so comfortable yet stylish and chic at once.
The photos were taking inside the Drawing Room at Flemings Mayfair Hotel that echoes elegance and grace in homage to the hotel’s 18th-century origins with its beautiful exquisite hand-painted wall panels that complement the room’s heritage by famous de Gournay depicting early views of India.
My look: Camille crystal-bow velvet jumpsuit by Saloni, Jodie suede platform sandals by Saint Laurent, silver-tone crystal clip earrings by Alessandra Rich, Maillon de Cartier 16mm 18-karat white gold diamond watch, and Clash de Cartier bracelet MM in white gold, both by Cartier, and elephant mini crystal-embellished suede shoulder bag by Loewe.

Life is too short to wait … I decided not waste time on unimportant matters or unworthy emotions. Life is also too short to wait for a special event to wear a fabulous outfit. During my month here in London – I am having such a good time in this vibrant city – I love to dress up and go out. This has become one of my favorite looks.
My look: Lace turtleneck bodysuit, matching lace leggings, croc-effect vinyl mini skirt, and laser-cut leather corset belt, all by Alaïa, Cherry leather platform ankle boots by Saint Laurent, and black satin pochette (Métiers d’Art 2023 Collection Paris – Dakar) by CHANEL.

This weekend, I had the best time in Los Angeles celebrating the birthday of a dear friend of mine. The dress code said «chic rock’n roll» and this was what I came up with. I love wearing jumpsuits as those are great for dancing which is my favorite thing to do.

Feeling very «tropézienne» in the small seaside town of Saint Tropez on the French Riviera. Its fame started in the 50s and 60s, when Brigitte Bardot set foot on the soil of this fishing town. From then until today, this place never ceases to intrigue with its tiny streets and beautiful colors. A great time to come here is at the end of the season for the Voiles de St. Tropez, which is one of the most prestigious regattas in the Mediterranean. Both ultramodern yachts and rare wooden yachts participate in it. This year, it takes place between September 29, 2023 until October 8, 2023.
My look: Fringed wool and cashmere-blend jacquard scarf, and printed stretch-jersey leggings, both by Valentino, Playboy Lips appliqué canvas book clutch by Olympia Le-Tan, black bandeau top, metal glass pearls leather earrings, and logo metal chain belt, all by CHANEL, and Jodie black suede platform sandals by Saint Laurent.

Ibiza life at its best. The island is mystical with an unbelievable energy and it is believed that it has a strong magnetically force blessed by the gods. You can unleash your inner moon goddess representing dance, fertility, sexuality and creativity. Here you see me on the terrace of Nobu Ibiza before going out…
My look: Chimera embroidered silk-chiffon maxi dress by Temperley London, gold bag with fringes by Saint Laurent, feather, crystal and bead earrings by Oscar de la Renta, sunglasses by Balenciaga, and leather platform pumps by Gucci.

Greeting from Mykonos where the Meltemi, a dry northern wind blows over the Aegean during summer strongly. A headscarf is then a great idea to keep hair in place and prevent it from tangling.
Shopping sustainably starts with investing in the right pieces and keeping them for many years to come. An Hermès silk carré is a great example for such an item. My grandmother gifted me with my first one when I was a kid. If you take good care of your collection, you can hand them over to the next generation. Making change together is all about making little transformations within your own behaviors toward a more beautiful and happier life. Trust me on that!
My look: Embellished tulle-trimmed stretch-jersey and open-knit maxi dress by PatBO, Tess small embossed two-tone leather shoulder bag by Chloé, bead-embellished flat sandals by Saint Laurent, «Caparacons de la France et de L’Inde» 90cm silk twill scarf (designed by Philippe Ledoux, first launched in 1959, re-editions in 1997 and 2008) by Hermès, leopard print lens sunglasses by Dolce & Gabbana, Ras Du Cou silver-tone, shell and beaded necklace, and gold-tone and shell earrings, both by Isabel Marant.

Unlocking the secrets behind French women’s style, the effortlessness, the attitude, the enigmatic and ever-so-coveted «je ne sais quoi». Simplicity is, apparently, key, as French women are never overdone or overdressed. It’s all about hyper-engineered minimalism, and by the way who said men’s shirts are only for men? Combine classic pieces in your wardrobe with something edgy, like breton stripes, a great pair of jeans with a cool sailor cap and you will feel like a true Parisian!
My look: Striped cardigan jacket with leather details, flared jeans in dark union wash twill, cropped boyfriend shirt in blue chambray, and Triomphe wool sailor cap, all by Celine, Mini Dauphine bag by Louis Vuitton, Le Loafer leather penny loafers by Saint Laurent, and polarized pilot sunglasses by CHANEL.

Two important dates in one week: Art Basel, the world-renowned contemporary art fair, is taking place from from 12th to 18th June and it also marks the end of Switzerland’s second-largest bank, Credit Suisse, that was taken over by its rival UBS. In the photo to the left you can see the headquarters at Paradeplatz in Zurich in the back. We shot this beautiful art inspired look inside Galerie Gmurzynska. Fashion is art for me, and this time literally.
My Look: Buckle-detailed draped stretch-jersey mini dress, and frame handbag, both by Moschino, Grace bow-embellished knee boots, and grooved cabochon clip earrings, both by Saint Laurent.

Thanks to Dolce & Gabbana I can enjoy my beloved pasta in an entire look decked out with one of the most delicious carbs on the planet.
