Episode Synopsis

What do you get when a management consultant turns fashion designer and lands on the red carpet at Cannes? A story you definitely won’t find on your Instagram explore page.In this episode, I’m joined (again!) by my friend and a fashion boss, Smrutha Santhosh —the first British Indian fashion designer to showcase her fashion and walk the red carpet at the Cannes Film Festival 2025. We chat about everything from outfit drama and red carpet jitters to random celebrity run-ins and what it really feels like to be at Cannes when you’re not a Bollywood superstar (but might be bumping into one).If you’ve ever stared at Cannes photos and wondered, “But what’s it actually like?”, this one’s for you.---------------------------------------------Follow Smrutha on Instagram || Facebook || LinkedIn || Website https://wowvastra.com/ Smrutha’s episode on vacationing is Iceland – here S2 Ep15 ---------------------------------------------Click here to pick up a copy of the Travel Journal(DM on our Instagram page or Email [email protected], for bulk order discounts)---------------------------------------------To support our team and donate generously, please click ⁠⁠⁠⁠SUPPORT ⁠⁠⁠⁠.Like our work?
