We at Little Black Book are always on the hunt for the next cool thing, be it people, places, or experiences. So, we rallied our network of experts, tastemakers, and celebrities to form Curators Of Cool, to give you sneak peeks into their Little Black Books. This is a VIP pass that will grant you access to tours, walks, bar crawls, expert guides, workshops, and more, to discover cities, hubs, and more that you need to be on top of. This month, we have Rishi and Vibhuti, the designer duo whose creations stay rent-free in our brains whenever we plan our fictional wedding at 2 AM. Doctors turned designers, Rishi and Vibhuti stitch up fantasies in their outfits, each piece is a homage to Indian roots with a modern flair reminiscent of European influences. 

As serial movers and shakers in the women's clothing sphere, we asked them what things they keep wanting more of, what's in their Little Black Book and here's what they shared with us.
