‘Naboborsho is the time to discover personal style’

When Calcutta Times reached out to entrepreneur and style maven Esha Dutta to curate a Poila Boishakh look, she knew exactly the vibe she wanted — graceful, festive, and with a playful Indo-western twist. And who better to style than the fresh new face of the industry, Hiya Chatterjee, who is all set to make her acting debut. We also chatted with the two to know what the Bengali New Year means to them.
Hiya looks so graceful in this Naboborsho outfit: Esha Dutta
Entrepreneur and style curator Esha Dutta says she had a great time curating the outfit for Hiya. Talking about the shoot, she says: “Hiya embodies youth, versatility, and the ease of carrying both ethnic and global styles. She was the perfect fit and brought the look to life beautifully.”
Esha aunty helped me find my own style: Hiya Chatterjee
When asked about her first shoot experience with Esha and CT, Hiya said: “Being styled by Esha aunty – whose sense of fashion I’ve always admired — was such a wholesome experience. I absolutely loved her vision for me. It was something very different from what I usually wear, but now I’m inspired to add more Indo-western pieces to my wardrobe.”
