    Cloud Dancer (aka, white) might be the Pantone color of the year, but if there is one color that is quietly making its way to some of the biggest pop culture moments of the year, without anyone realising, it’s blue.

    If Meryl Streep wearing the iconic cerulean blue sweater from The Devil Wears Prada earlier this year wasn’t a confirmation big enough, we are here to announce in big, bold letters, that blue is having a major moment right now. Different shades of blue are working against the clock to establish their dominance this year, and we are here for it!

    Unless you are living under a rock, you probably know about Zendaya’s “Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue” series of looks that she wore for the promotions of her movie "The Drama". In which case, you would also know about her beautiful Schiaparelli look. The stunning black dress was covered in feathers in the prettiest shade of blue, which further solidified the color’s reign this year. She styled it with blue shimmery smokey eyes, which is another big trend right now under the blue trend umbrella.

    Additionally, Lady Gaga also wore a blue-hued custom dress by Luar at the Superbowl earlier this year, which became a moment.

    And, of course, the blue moment of the year, was the cerulean sweater. With the return of The Devil Wears Prada, came the return of the cerulean sweater. As a reference to her cerulean sweater monologue, Meryl Streep wore a similar sweater by J.Crew at the Tonight Show while promoting The Devil Wears Prada 2.

    More recently, we saw these oh-so-beautiful looks on Rue and Jules from Euphoria, and, while it might not be as iconic as other looks on the list, it’s hard to deny the beauty. And the fact that they’re both this stunning shade of blue!

    For Manifest to become one of Cambridge Dictionary's most viewed words of 2024 — 1,30,000 hits and counting — it means some of us must have Googled it at least once. I know, I hit that search button over and over again
    because each time I looked at it, I saw a new meaning.

    Putting together a homegrown title at a time when the demise of print has been long announced may seem surprising...
    ...but it has long been a dream of mine to give India a magazine it deserves. A magazine that is the country.

    And nothing, absolutely nothing, represents India more than our weddings.It is a time when families are brought together. Traditions come alive as they are adapted to each couple's beliefs. And lives are joined in a way that the romantic in me still enjoys.

    The fact that it comes with band, baaja and baraat — what's not to love?And that is the reason our first issue celebrates:
    THE NEW BRIDE.
