'Fashion India is an examination of fashion in India but in the broadest possible sensePhyllida Jay wisely takes on not only fashion in its most literal aspects but also in terms of its traditions, whether it be in style, manufacture, textiles, retailing, embellishments, and history... It is a rather clever and striking device that really informs the reader on multiple planes' - New York Review of Books
'A must-buy for anyone fascinated by India's rich sartorial trajectory' - Vogue
