Where To Score Sarees For This Scorching Summer
Sonal Kalra Ahuja
Trust us, the sarees from designer Sonal Kalra Ahuja’s collection Le Jardin will make this weather bearable for you. Think garden florals in pastel hues, and gold accents in a palette of pastels. The drapes she makes use rich fabrics, embroidered laces, and some beading and embellishments. Her collection is available at Pernia’s Pop-Up Shop and Ogaan in Hauz Khas Village.
