Speaking about style. diva Sushmita Sen said: “Style is an aspect of your life. People are stylish when they are good in every aspect of life. I am the one who does not follow trends. I am different and I follow my own path.”

“My style icon is Madonna. I love Madonna because I feel her music is her style statement," she added.

“Fashion changes every year. I come from two decades ago and now I see everybody wants to remain so fit. India is now discovering new designers,” said Sushmita Sen.

Commenting on the city, she said, “To me Kolkata is home. I get so much love from Kolkata and I would love coming back to Kolkata again and again.”

The designers Pankaj & Nidhi who launched their label eight years ago showcased their amazing collection of ‘The glass house by the sea’.
