Lisa Ray Instagram – A: I love that @vogueitalia is highlighting a breakout generation of Indian women that I rant about to anyone within earshot and who give me life.
B. I love Shweta.
C. This is should be mounted as THE anti-Matchmaking campaign. Especially for the Indian diaspora. Eegads. Don’t get me started.

Shweta is a stylist, fashion designer and artist living in Mumbai. She curates her life in the same style as her wardrobe and this is evident in the work she creates as a stylist as well as how she decorates her home. Little details in every nook and corner of her home show memories of hers and of others, lives well lived and made nostalgic in paintings and little knick-knacks. Her style is authentic to her and is a window into her mind and mood.

The idea of a woman having a career, being independent and living on her own terms, to explore herself professionally and personally and to push her boundaries is a very contemporary notion in India.
As a society at large, we often compare growth and evolution by the success stories of pioneers. Here’s a list of 13 women who are part of a new India that is being formed, an India on the path to a change that starts in the mind and in the home. These are women who have broken stereotypes and pushed the boundaries of gender and occupation as a way of life.
