MARCH 2023 THE GIST SIpring is here, and it brings with it a slew of fashion weeks, new collections at ateliers, new resolutions for a brand new finacial year, and brand new bucket lists. For our spring issue, as we set our intentions, we take a good look at how far the inclusive movement has come in the fashion and beauty industry, Whether inclusivity is performative, or has had some deep rooted change in how fashion talks of real people more than ever? And then in food, with experimentation being the flavour of the season, we dare to ask, is fusion really confusion? Or has Indian food had its most profound modernist movement, breaking away from the boundaries set by ‘traditional’ cooking to a bolder, spicier palate? Read chefs debating it out inside these pages. Since the season (and cherry blossoms) demand it, here are some bike-friendly places you could visit, and some gadgets that upgrade your home from oh-so-last season! A happy spring equinox to everyone!
