MAGNECTIC MUMBAI
Saloni Lodha is a global nomad. The acclaimed fashion designer grew up in India outside the ancient holy city of Nashik, but has since lived in London, Seoul and Hong Kong, where she’s now based. But if there’s one city that always feels like home to her, it’s Mumbai. “I moved to Mumbai to study when I was 16,” she says. “I loved it, and it’s very special to me—it’s where I met my husband, where I had my first child.”
Saloni returns to Mumbai at least twice a year and often finds inspiration there for her eponymous label; her flattering, colourful dresses in vibrant patterns are favourites of the Duchess of Cambridge, Naomi Watts and women around the world looking for elegant, easy-to-wear wardrobe staples that are as comfortable in an office in Shanghai as they are on the school run in New York or on holiday in Paris.
