Dapper at Dusk’: A curated evening by The Chanakya X Harper’s Bazaar, India

It was an evening of meaningful conversations, refreshing cocktails, and flavourful nibbles, as The Chanakya—the luxury trendsetter, always spearheading experiences in retail and beyond joined forces with Bazaar India to celebrate luxury, fashion, body and beyond. The soiree held on the 26th of August and named ‘Dapper at Dusk’ was graced by known faces in the fashion and lifestyle industry. It also commemorated the latest issue of Bazaar India on the theme Body and Beyond, featuring cover star Sobia Ameen, a Bangladesh-based model.

The evening started with a thought-provoking dialogue between Pushpa Bector, Senior Executive Director and Head of the DLF retail division and Vinod Nair, Consulting Editor of Lifestyle and Luxury IPs, India Today Group. This engaging conversation delved into the forthcoming shifts in the luxury landscape, skilfully moderated by Smita Tripathi from the Bazaar India team. Following this was a positive discussion between Rasna Bhasin, Editor, Bazaar India and Sobia where she eloquently touched upon the significance of self-confidence and self-love, while also indulging in some enjoyable and insightful questions.

Adding to the opulence of the evening, were delectable ice-cream scoops generously served by Cold Love and the delightful aromas offered by The Experience Curator, Aman Vohra. Guests also had the opportunity to explore their creative side with engaging activities like calligraphy and caricature photography.

To set the mood for the night, and provide a sweet ending to this bespoke event at The Chanakya, The Copy Cats spun melodious contemporary and retro tunes. Leaving a lasting impression on all the attendees, it surely was an evening worth remembering.
