MISS INDIA QUINTESSENTIAL IS ALL SET

MISS INDIA QUINTESSENTIAL IS ALL SET FOR THE FINALE ON THE 23RD FEBRUARY, 2020

The city of Gurgaon is the hub for many corporates, industrialists, and telecommunications, people of all parts of the country are present. The only thing that it needed was a pinch of glitter and glamour. 

Beginning this year with a bang, G-Town society started this year by officially launching the beauty pageant Miss India Quintessential. The hunt began a year ago in every part of the country to choose the top finalists who would compete for the crown at the pageant on the 23rd of February. Anjali Verma, one of the ace designers as well as the official designer of Miss India Quintessential too is all set and excited to launch her collection with the pageant finalists. 

This event was a curtain-raiser to introduce all the contestants to media, socialists and other general attendees. There was a Q&A round which involved the contestants to share their expectations from the pageant and the qualities that distinguish them from each other. The idea of physical beauty is a myth that has been inculcated in the people who had a wrong understanding of beauty. To break the barrier and look for something that makes you beautiful for what you are is what this pageant stands for. 

The launch was organized after all the participants were trained and groomed for nine days at the accommodation provided by G-Town to all the finalists. The contestants were groomed under various categories like self-esteem and goal setting, personality development, social etiquette, styling, prepping up for the Q&A, etc. and are all ready to rock the floor on the final day. 

Nishee Stephan, the Editor In Chief of the magazine and the board member of the pageant's jury member said,  "We had a great launch and our contestants showed extreme confidence and are getting ready for the finale but the only one who shows extreme confidence and possesses the mixed balance of our new age India with fundamental values of our traditions and makes India culturally rich will be the winner and will then have the chance of her life to represent India on the international platform.”

Chitrandga Singh as the showstopper was exactly what I had wished for!

 Style, Class, Finesse is what defines the budding fashion designer. In Donatella Versace’s words, “Creativity comes from a conflict of ideas”, true in every sense, this is what helps Anjali too. Ideas, Imagination and hard work to create something unique and elegant are not something that she can do without. Having started her label ‘Anjali Verma’ at the young age of 25 years, Anjali is super enthusiastic and energetic about her work and always puts her best foot forward.    

Anjali work mainly involves handcrafted and semi-organic designs inspired by nature. Anjali is quite encouraged and fond of nature and her designs to resemble the natural elements. Her collection reflects the beauty of nature blended in pure form fabric and hand-drawn embroidery. Anjali is a hoarder of subtlety and one can find the same in her collection as well. She loves to select the material on her own and is very specific about the way it falls. Anjali has a varied range of collections catering to all age groups. ‘Kuwaari’ will be my next line of design for all the ladies out there no matter the age, from a girl 16 years old to the female who is fashionable at heart at any given age” said Anjali Verma. The designer is currently in the process of finishing it.

Meanwhile with having made a strong debut at the Lakme Fashion Week 2019 and having Chitrandga Singh as her showstopper the designer has also been appointed in the jury and would also be the official designer for the upcoming hunt of Miss India Quintessential. Talking about the hunt the designer says, “This collection has a lot to offer in terms of vibrant colors and intricate designs which are made to make you feel empowered but you will have to wait to see how beautifully it transforms in design.

Anjali shares the experience of working each design and about with her collaboration with Chitrandga Singh, “Each and every design takes a good amount of time for us to make after I am done with the initial design. Every minute detail is to be followed as per instructions to see the real piece of art. The designs I showcased at LFW 2019 were called Delilah and were inspired by frost flowers formed during the freezing temperatures. The fall-winter time is one of the most beautiful times and so was the show, Chitrangda was a perfect muse and a gorgeous showstopper, she was exactly how I thought she would be, perfect combination style, class, and beauty. I think she would be every designer’s muse in their heads while they create their design.”

Anjali is the torchbearer of designs having a touch of modernity and contemporary look along with the traditional twist. Being modern at heart at the same time not forgetting her roots, Anjali ensures her collection brings out the Indian-ness, the reflection of our culture and heritage which is also a part of her being born and raised in Delhi.
