My job entails a lot of exciting fun projects and this one has got to be one of them. The Max Elite Model Look hunt has been going on for over a month now and after auditions being held in every major city in the country, they finally made it to the fashion capital, Mumbai. For an aspiring model, this is a dream come true! The several finalists from the various cities that are selected by the jury will compete to win in Mumbai on 29th April. The two winners will then start a once in a lifetime journey to Paris where they will represent India and compete with models like themselves from all over the world. One of the most prestigious model management company, these young girls and boys were in their best spirits with only one goal in mind. The energy was addictive.

As a part of the project, I got to select two models and style them in the new Autumn/ Winter collection from Max Fashion. The idea was to keep the styling simple yetimpactfuland to let their personalities do the talking. The new collection at Max surprised in many ways. Not only was is bang on trend, the clothing was youthful and worked perfectly with my style sensibilities. From denims to quoted sweatshirts to velvet jackets to plaid shirts, I had a tough time picking just one look each for Shariq Geetanjali. I infact ended up picking some key fall pieces for my own wardrobe!

For Shariq, I went for something very basic. A pair of denims would be an essential but I decided to trade the basic fit for a more trendy, jogger style pick. In between a faded grey blue hue, these would be the ideal to have in ones wardrobe. To compliment the joggers, I gave him a bomber meets varsity style jacket, to keep the look youthful. For Geetanjali, the burgundy cropped jacket was the starting point. As soon I spotted it in the store, there was noway I could not feature it! I layered it with a grey sweatshirt with the wordInspirescribbled across it. A pair of ankle length skinny jeans completed this urban chic look!

Both these looks are so apt for the up coming months and could make the perfect college looks. Not only that, I stocked up on some really cool sweatshirts which would ideal for weekend dressing and travelling. I hope you guys enjoyed these looks! I am super excited to be at the Finale on 14th October and see who will the final two faces be to represent us in Paris. Heres wishing everyone the best of luck!
