With every issue of The Peacock Magazine, we bring you the latest in fashion and fresh perspectives on beauty, glamour, technology and celebrity. This time, we have Rishab Rikhiram Sharma as our cover star, weaving together a beautiful issue bound by rhythmic sonic tapestries. It was a delight to shoot with the sitar prodigy, who was effortlessly at ease in front of the camera and opened up about his journey, his family legacy and his connection with Pandit Ravi Shankar.
This issue highlights our top recommendations across luxury, fashion and technology through Peacock Hearts, while also tracing the evolution of the perfume world over the years, explained by Manish Mishra, with Maxime Exler sharing his insights and experiences within the industry.
We then step into the world of luxury watches with Charles Oudin, as Claire Berthet shares her perspective on leading a heritage brand and preserving its legacy. Divya Mathur, CMO and Fashion Director at REVOLVE, offers a glimpse into the evolution of luxury and the growing impact of AI. We then turn to The Leela Palace as it takes the centre stage, with Preeti Makhija, a visionary hospitality Maven, sharing her key learnings and the challenges behind building a hospitality empire. Next, we bring you a timely reflection on the importance of disconnecting in a world dominated by technology and social media. Our tech writer explores a growing trend where people are willing to pay a premium to be unreachable.
Our fashion editorials feature the Rang Mahal and Le Grand Voyage collections. One captures the beauty and serenity of Udaipur, while the other explores the artistry of Byzantine architecture translated through contemporary silhouettes. As always, we round off the issue with our curated fashion features, bringing you the latest styling tips and ideas so that you can have a revamped wardrobe.
We hope you will find this issue enjoyable and relevant to read. Happy reading!
