About Behind the Style
I use digital fashion illustrations to map out your outfit's proportions and color combinations before we even start shopping. This prevents those 'it looked better in the picture' moments because we have already stress-tested the layering and accessories on paper, ensuring your final look is perfectly balanced.
Think of these sketches as your personal outfit blueprint. When you work with me, we don't just guess what might look good; we visualize it. Whether we are planning an ethnic look for a wedding or a sharp outfit for your office, I break down the silhouette and color palette first. This helps us spot potential issues with fit or coordination long before you spend a single rupee.
Behind the scenes, the styling process is often a bit messy. It involves hours of hunting for the right pieces on budget-friendly platforms, checking fabric textures, and figuring out if that one blazer will actually work for a weekend brunch. I share these sketches and BTS moments because I want you to see that style is a process, not magic.
If you are in Delhi and struggling to figure out what suits your body type or how to mix your existing wardrobe, these illustrations are where we start. We talk about your preferences, identify your 'main character' vibe, and build something that feels uniquely yours. It is all about making fashion accessible and fun, not intimidating. Let’s get into the details and turn your fashion ideas into a reality.
