Celebrations are in order for both the fashion and film fraternity as fashion designer turned actress Masaba Gupta rings in her birthday today. Starting her journey as a Gen Next designer at Lakme Fashion Week at the mere age of 19, Masaba became one of the most promising names in the fashion circuit in the last decade. She later opened her flagship stores, House of Masaba, across the nation, and has never looked back since then.
One who has followed the work of this style maven can vouch for her eccentric creations. Gupta's design aesthetic is a conscious blend of contemporary and traditional that features bold and unconventional prints, breezy silhouettes and bright colours sans embellishments. Dramatic dhotis, quirky jumpsuits and feminine drapes, her collection have always been a breath of fresh air. But that’s just a feather in one of the many hats that she dons. Gupta has expanded her horizons with respect to her collection collaborations as well as other domains and recently made a smashing debut in Netflix's semi-autobiographical web show, Masaba Masaba.
Check out what makes this 31-year-old diva a fashion’s hot property!
JAW DROPPING COLLABORATIONS
Over the period of time, Masaba has managed to score some eye-popping collaborations to add it to the list of her achievements. Her capsule collection in collaboration with HBO’s Game of Thrones was quite a sensation and the designer made headlines about it as well.
Her 'loud and ladylike' MasabaxRhea collection with producer-stylist friend Rhea Kapoor hit all the right fashion notes.
Masaba's collaboration with Nykaa marks her presence in the beauty biz as well. Unveiling the collection of lipsticks, perfumes and nail paints, Gupta not only dominates our wardrobes but also our vanity boxes!
LIGHTS. CAMERA. ACTION
Masaba added another feather to her versatile hat and made her acting debut with Netflix’s Masaba Masaba. With her effortless performance, Gupta showed us that her acting skills are as impressive as her sartorial sensibilities. We for one, cannot wait for its season 2 already!
FASHION DOYENNE
Gupta’s personal style reflects her Indo-Caribbean roots.
Chic fusion wears, power pantsuits, bold, printed drapes, her personal style is as LIT as her collection!
ADVOCATE OF BODY POSITIVITY
Being the fashion connoisseur that she is, Masaba has always advocated the ideas of loving yourself and never shying away from embracing your body.
Always making sure to spread the message body positivity, Masaba has owned her curves at every given occasion in feisty swimsuits and body-hugging dresses.
Happy Birthday, Masaba. Here’s raising a toast to a fabulous and fashion-forward year ahead!
