Ritu Beri is undoubtedly one of the most renowned names in the Fashion industry. She was the first Indian designer to showcase her collection at the Paris Fashion Week.
"I feel the fashion capital today is Paris. Paris is where style inspires and fashion thrives. It is a city of magical soirees and a haven for the discerning gastronomes. In this city everything is irresistible. One cannot miss the miraculous collision of glamour and French seduction- a real mix of beauty and adventure!!! Paris is truly inspirational.", she says.
She loves working with Indian textiles and is the brand ambassador for Khadi.
Being an acclaimed designer doesn't stop her from having other loves (designing clothes being the first, of course!).
When asked about her passions Ritu Beri says "I like to be surrounded by hyperactivity of visual stimulation, ideas and talent to replenish my mind's eye. Nothing inspires me more than life. This inspiration is my source of passion and has gifted me some of the most rewarding experiences I could ever ask for. Seeing a painting, hearing a musical piece, entering a well-done home, visiting Paris, these have been among the many milestones that have given me my direction."
She also seems to love these 5 other things. Have a look.
1. Reading
She is a book lover and a stationery junkie. This was something that we expected since she has authored a few books. One of the few people to document her thoughts, she has authored books like 'The Relentless Mind', which showcases her journey through pictures. She made a conscious decision to keep it as real as possible. Her book tells the tale of skyrocketing highs and heartbreaking lows. Her other books include '101 Ways to look your best' and 'Firefly - A Fairytale', to name a few.
2. Travelling
Even though Paris is her first love, she has travelled around the world. Definitely the part of her job that she loves dearly. She doesn't forget to get herself clicked with her darling daughter in these picturesque locations.
3. Food
We didn't have to dig too deep on her Instagram to get to know about her love for food. She is undoubtedly a foodie at heart. Her Instagram is full of pictures of delicious Parisian delicacies.
4. Architecture
It looks like the weaves of fabric are not the only thing that inspire and intrigue her. The architecture around her also inspires her a lot. At the end of the day, she is a creative person taking inspiration from all things that surround her.
5. Jewellery
It looks like, besides clothes and food, she has another guilty pleasure - jewellery. Her love for rings and vintage pieces is evident. She loves adorning a piece or two every now and then. An entrepreneur, a creator, a visionary, a boss lady, this woman isn't stopping even to catch a breath!
