Some of the shots of one pair are below, others photographs are still being developed. It’s called the Bow-tie.

I reached here on 19th May 2007. I’m interning with Bema Co. Ltd. - manufacturers of quality lingerie!

I’m designing lingerie for them. The theme’s based on how we identify potential mates for procreation. Based on the lingerie women wear. Of course I’m not going to post the entire theory here right now - no time.

Currently I’m surviving on one small wok of chicken and a portion of pork rice every afternoon. Dinner is Grape Tang and breakfast is some milk with almonds and raisins [ might lose the tummy by the time I get back ]. Internship gets over on 13th July. Might stay on a bit longer in Bangkok to check out the country before I head back to ma own country!

HP’s at Nehru Place - photography’s not allowed but hey - they’re awesome! Shot by a friend. Was picking up fabric for a skirt and top - sketch was ready, needed to start creating.

This is supposed to be a pullquote in this particular post.

The styling is currently supposed to put horizontal bars above and below the quoted text - I will probably change that design soon - once I get the basic function to work!

Update
Ok, the new pullquote design is done. For now.

The NIFT college schedule is hectic (and that is an UNDERSTATEMENT!) and taking a break is one of those rare luxuries available only when everyone on the group had done their job.

This is in the college studio.

These shots have been taken on the figurettes in our College Studio.

that is the model on the right and myself on the left
that is me wearing the shirt, the skirt was picked up from Sarojini Nagar market in Delhi and I agree it is not a good combination!

There isn’t much about me online so there are no links that I can point you to. I am on Orkut and LinkedIn though. And have not updated my LinkedIn profile in ages. Will be posting some of my work’s photographs soon.
