How you can flaunt your vintage finds with a modern twist

Elements of vintage have always found a way to revolutionise Indian fashion. But has it ever left modern aesthetics? “No, it never really has,” says veteran designer Anju Modi. “What constitutes as vintage is early 19th century, and the influences are still visible not only in the form of patterns and motifs, but also the fabrics we’re creating,” she says. So are vintage elements still relevant in modern silhouettes? “Of course! Trends come and go, but classics are always relevant. We are a culture and craft-rich country, after all,” she adds.
