BB: Tips for plus size women? Ridhi: Maxi dresses are a good way to highlight the necessary and hide the unnecessary. They are a very good option for plus size women as they accentuate only the required body parts.

BB: What should one wear to the following – a house party, New Year's Eve, a wedding, or a night out on the town? Ridhi: Keep it simple and comfy for house parties. New Year's Eve could be a tube top, fur coat, pencil skirt and heels. Floor length contemporary anarkalis look suave and smart for a wedding. A night out could be a short tube dress with a trench coat and statement jewellery.
