1 A P R I L 1 4, THE FASHION INTENSIVE Day to Day updates Stepping into the bright red door was a Narnia of sorts. A world bustling with strong female opinion and the usual friendly banter. Since embracing any sort of social protocol was my weakness, I tried to move my face muscles to see if it passes off as sane.

2 I took a step further into the Kingdom. The I" was now inching towards a We since we all could spot the intimidating giant. She went by the name Early Success. The we were then asked to gather around and weave the story of you-know-who into our own reality check. After taking the bullet right where it hurts, we met the next giant and he went by the name Solace. The warmth of this helped us remove the inch of solid metal from our soul. Here, having a conversation was more like self discovery. Imagine this : you ve lived with yourself your whole life and think you and your kin know who you are. Until you hit your once upon a time with a bunch of strangers in a borderline fictional life which takes everything you know into serious turbulence. (Yes, I m on the flight right now! Im just trying to take inspiration from my surroundings, eh?)

3 A P R I L 1 5, THE FASHION INTENSIVE Day to Day updates Landed into a hope bed of macarons. Everyone was looking into the Parisian aesthetic with a combination of one excited eye while the other begged for it to shut.

4 SAINT CHAPELLE was the first entrance we experienced and the riot of colour in the tainted glass left a mark on our individual forever history. Like La Vie En Rose, we saw our first La Vie En A-Lot-Of-Colour in this new city as opposed to the neutral yet uniform exterior of the city.

5 Moving forward, the NOTRE-DAME was in the true sense, emotional. Apart from the architecture that intrigued me while the soulful sound of The Organ touch our depths, the people were the essence. A teardrop in the shape of a prayer to the joy bouncing off the walls, it managed to overwhelm an uninformed bystander.

6 A P R I L 1 6, THE FASHION INTENSIVE Day to Day updates MERCI The concept store was an insight into creating an experience for the consumer which in turn sells atleast 50% the product without any human interference. Characteristics like the detailing on the walls to the relevant fragrance add to making you a part of it completely.

The store, so well put together that even the magazines on the rack were on point enough to attract their target customer

7 The quirky wallpaper to support the aesthetic of every product was well thought out and served as an inspiration for future projects in Art Direction. The store, so well put together that even the magazines on the rack were on point enough to attract their target customer base. Also, the impulse purchase products were repeating themselves in varied parts of the store that gave you a sense of belonging even while changing major aspects like designers and the space curated for them.

8 CHANEL Even though we didn't explore the inside of the building, just the thought that she was the reason the whole place looks like this was moving enough.

9 VALENTINO The part that intrigued me here was that the whole store had 1 single print throughout in different colour combinations and styles. For example : A jacket had the same print in sequin. Do let me know if there is a particular reason for this.

10 GUCCI Alessandro Michele's collaboration with Ignasi Monreal has heightened Gucci for me. The use of colour and print in their work comes together so beautifully, I personally see it as an evolution for the brand.

11 A door on the street that caught my eye as the monochrome with a subtle pop of colour was more than effortless and refreshing as compared to the luxury stores that were worked on hard to put together.

12 PALAIS DE TOKYO Modern Art is not something I don't appreciate or take back from, its just that I personally don't share a vested interest in it. My experience here let me soak in a lot. From abstract installations to a history meets technology, it was all very thought provoking.

13 Im glad I went for the WW1 exhibit. The bit of the deformity of the masks gave me a bit of clarity since I've been meaning to do a shoot with masks instead of faces. The fact that it wasn't unnecessarily beautifying the ground reality to make it easy on the eye is exactly what I appreciated about it. I would want to do a take on this during a shoot and incorporate it in the little way that I can possibly.
