We all have that one trusty staple or special piece in our wardrobes that we keep returning to—your first expensive big girl dress, a vintage top discovered serendipitously in Europe, a necklace your grandmother passed down to you. New or old, expensive or thrifted, these possessions serve purposes far greater than merely utilitarian. They bring a smile on days we need a pick-me-up, they serve as keepsakes of precious memories, they make us feel like we can conquer the world (or day), and basically never fail to deliver. Bazaar India asked five stylish women to dig into their closets to unearth such a piece, and share their sartorial sparks of joy with us.
PERNIA QURESHI
Fashion Entrepreneur
From vintage Chanel to custom couture from the world’s top Houses, the fashion entrepreneur’s wardrobe is a veritable trove of treasures. As one of the most stylish women in the country, Pernia Qureshi is often seen walking that line between classic and cool. She’s happiest in pieces that are feminine yet fun, but never run-of-the-mill. One such outfit she owns is a black dress with a twist from Obataimu, a conceptual store in Kala Ghoda, Mumbai that she likens to a speakeasy. The fitted ruched number with cape sleeves is one Pernia says she sees herself wearing for decades to come. “It’s made from this unique stretch fabric developed by the brand, and it just takes the shape of your body so beautifully,” she says. The mother-of-one turned to it twice for a dose of pregnancy chic, including styling it simply for a New Year’s Eve party when she was six months pregnant. “It complements you no matter what shape you’re in,” she adds.
