Panchi Bora
Fashion has a different meaning for different people.
To be fashionable is very important for actors.
Whether fashion means haute couture or street
side depends on the individual. In short it
means an individual?s style statement.
As fashion often dictates public taste we
profile some of our TV stars for their take on fashion.
We caught Panchi Bora in a fashionable
chat where she revealed her make- up
secrets and fashion mantra.
What does fashion mean to you?
Fashion is a way of life. I think one must
keep updating themselves with the latest fashion trends.
Who chooses clothes for you?
Either myself or my mother. Most often
I go for shopping alone.
Are you fond of accessories?
I?m not really fond of accessories.
It?s just that everything should match with my dress and mood. I?m fond of watches and wear one all the time.
Is there any particular brand that you prefer?
I?m not so brand conscious. But if I
had to choose one it would definitely
be Guess. Mango is another brand that
I love. For footwear I prefer the roadside stuff.
Which is your most preferred shopping destination?
I like to shop from anywhere. It could
be malls or roadside shops. In particular,
Bandra is good place for both.
What is your comfort wear?
Ganjis and jeans.
Who is your favourite designer?
I hardly indulge in designer wear but
I would love to wear Manish Malhotra designs.
I?m planning to get one soon.
Most expensive outfit you ever bought?
Saris, I?ve recently started buying them.
Though they are expensive but they make me
feel good. I?m also planning to buy a Manish Malhotra sari.
Any particular colour you like to see in your wardrobe?
I love pink, blue and white. It?s a must in my wardrobe.
A must- have in your purse?
Kajal, lipstick and mascara.
Which is your fav make-up brand?
Only MAC. It?s the best.
A fashion tip
Just follow your heart. One should feel
comfortable and must know what suits the
best. Do not imitate someone as sometimes
you end up making a fool of yourself.
A make- up tip
Always clean your face before applying
make- up. Before going to bed remove it
well. To look fresh have a healthy diet.
