I like the personal touch you get with all the shoppers - they take the time to understand your personal style and curate clothes accordingly!

I like to be versatile and experiment with different styles - but yet keep it classic. But I love to experiment with different prints and silhouettes.
What's one piece in your wardrobe you can't part with?
A piece in my wardrobe I can’t part with is a pair of Altuzarra army pants I bought at Le Mill 2 years ago - they are the perfect pair and go with everything - day out or a night out, it always works!

What do you love about Le Mill?
I live in Delhi so I shop through the personal stylists. It's a very well curated store. The clothes are complementary to the store. There's so much thought that goes into it. The staff is warm and forthcoming. Cecilia always personally invites me to the pop up shows in Delhi, there's no pressure to buy anything, I appreciate that personal touch.
What’s your style aesthetic?
White shirt and ripped jeans is my standard. I prefer being effortlessly stylish. For me cut is everything. I like deconstructed, asymmetrical looks. I'm pear shaped, tiny on top with big hips so I know what silhouettes work for me. I love long loose shirts. I like understated florals and lace. Sometimes i'll go for leopard or bustier and corsets. I usually wear cotton and poplin, they're so comfortable in the hot weather. I have a neutral closet, taupe, black, white, greys. Sorry not sorry, I love black. I also have white shirts from every brand.
Which brands do you like to wear?
Zimmermann, YSL, Jonathan Simkhai, Isabel Marant, Johanna Ortiz,Alexander Wang, Helmet Lang.
In the summer i'll go for Rhode. I love wearing those for a morning to night transition. I'm from Australia so I really like brands Rick Owens. No explosions of color. Tony Maticevski. White Story.
What’s something in your wardrobe you’d never part with?
My Dior black dress. 2014. I would never part with it. The fabric feels so good, it just gives shape to you.
Gayatri Shah in her Feisty 40s
What do you like about Le Mill?
I love the curation of the clothes, the ability to have a window into global fashion right here in Mumbai, the personalized, top-notch customer service and the bright, airy store which always smells so wonderful!
What are your favourite brands to shop at Le Mill?
Dries Van Noten, Rosetta Getty, Jonathan Simkhai, Silvia Tcherassi, Isabel Marant, Saloni, Attico, Maus, Olivia Dar & Dhruv Kapoor ‘
What's your style aesthetic?
I veer towards easy, breezy comfortable clothing and like pieces that have an elegance and practicality to them. I dont like fussy or frills - they dont suit my personality. Classic silhouettes as opposed to more cutting edge, "fashiony" styles and most importantly, I adore trousers - wide legged, straight legged, capris, you name it, I love them!
What's one piece in your wardrobe you can't part with?
Pre-Covid - a simple white linen shirt I bought years ago in Italy
During Covid - a pair of Zara denim shorts
Post Covid - something new from Le Mill I hope!
