The Glitz Spotlight‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎
Who let the kids out? This Children’s Day, no one’s questioning the parents — because joy, sugar, and chaos make the perfect recipe for celebration. From giggling toddlers to sugar-high tweens, every little one deserves a day sprinkled with sweetness and laughter. This year, restaurants and cafés across India are rolling out menus that promise just that — treats that are as delightful as childhood itself. TheGlitz kids not, as it goes food-hopping through the most deliciously whimsical Children’s Day celebrations in town.
Read on... as TheGlitz delves into House of Three’s latest menswear masterpiece Boxwalas ...a poetic ode to the evolution of Indian suiting, where heritage tailoring from the '50s meets the swagger of 2025. And as we go down the fashion memory lane with twenty sharply curated looks, this unique collection celebrates the metamorphosis of the Indian gentleman... from the well-pressed idealist of post-Independence India to the urbane aesthete of today.
They swirl, they sip, they sparkle... and somewhere between a velvety Pinot and a bubbly Prosecco, Gargi Kothari and Devathi Mallick have bottled India’s most effervescent wine revolution. As the Co-founders of Viva la Vino, they’re uncorking a whole new attitude toward wine.

It’s 2025, and green beauty is no longer the final frontier, it’s going blue. From glossy reef-safe sunscreens to luxury cleansers packaged in seaweed-based pods, the Blue Beauty movement is redefining what it means to be truly sustainable in skincare. It's not just about what goes on your skin... it's about what goes down the drain and out to sea. As noted by Sumita Chakraborty, Founder and Editor-in-Chief, TheGlitz, Blue Beauty is fast becoming “the gold standard of conscious beauty,” where effectiveness meets environmental empathy.
all it your power pout, mood booster, or the ultimate one-swipe wonder, lipstick has always had us in shade-nation. From bold reds that mean business to barely-there nudes that whisper chic, it’s more than just makeup, it’s a mood, a memory, a moment. Whether you're a gloss girl, a matte maven, or a satin siren, TheGlitz says Lipstick Day is your cue to swipe right on colour, confidence, and a little extra sass.

Global audiences voted her above delegates from over thirty countries. First Indian winning this crown. "This isn't ornament," she told me. "It's perseverance made visible."

Ramp & Closet‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎
Gone are the days of heaviness and constraint. TheGlitz says: INAYA is featherlight and free, a bridal line for the woman who celebrates tradition, but lives on her own terms. With INAYA, Manish Malhotra presents an incredibly collection that's a movement in motion, a new rhythm for the modern bride and groom. Celebrated for his mastery of opulence and detail, Malhotra shifts the narrative this season to spotlight fluidity, form, and futuristic finesse. Anchored by the now-iconic crystal drape, the collection glows with an ethereal shimmer, reimagining bridalwear through a cosmopolitan lens.
If couture could whisper, TheGlitz is sure that it would murmur the verses Rahul Mishra embroidered onto the runway this season. In his latest collection, Becoming Love, unveiled at Paris Haute Couture Week Fall/Winter 2025, Mishra didn’t just design garments, he wove emotion into embroidery, turning Sufi philosophy into sartorial storytelling. The seven stages of love unfolded on the ramp not through words, but through zardozi, organza, sequins, and soul. This is love as art, couture as confession. And for those of us at TheGlitz, it was nothing short of an affair to remember.

Shiro and Candices Gourmet Sandwiches landed on my plate the same weekend, and I'm still thinking about both. At Candice's, a Banh Mi with tofu tasted better than it had at any of my previous jaunts, while Thai salad proved healthy food doesn't have to be boring. Over at Shiro, sushi arrived looking like art and tasting like the decade of experience behind it. One place let me show up in whatever I was wearing. The other deserved a dress code written in its towering Buddha and polished floors. Both knew exactly what they were doing.
The first impression is always the most lasting, and Faaya ensures the unboxing is nothing short of delightful. Nestled carefully, the stand reveals itself like a jewel box being opened... a luminous citrine palette shining through, instantly evoking a festive aura. The hand-illustrated tropical florals are exquisite, delicate strokes of nature-inspired art that bring an almost painterly quality to serveware. It’s not just a platter; it’s a conversation starter.

When the shimmering spotlight of Dharma Productions... once practically engraved with “Reserved for Ananya Panday”, suddenly swivels toward a new face like Aneet Padda, you can bet Bollywood’s gossip blender goes into overdrive. After all, Ananya has long been the chosen one of the Karan Johar galaxy (yes, that KJo, patron saint of pouty debuts and designer heartbreaks). But now, with Aneet — the surprise breakout star of 2025 — sashaying into the Dharma halo, it looks like Ananya’s designer heels might be wobbling just a little. Because when KJo’s eye for talent wanders, the entire industry starts whispering, “Has Ananya finally met her match? Read on...
In an industry where lights, lenses, and limelight define success, Badass Ravi Kumar director Keith Gomes did the unthinkable... he stepped away from it all. A car crash that nearly claimed his life and the loss of his father became his awakening... one that took him from the plush studios of Bollywood to the humble villages of Odisha and Chhattisgarh, where he lived among tribal communities, slept in mud huts, bathed in rivers, and learned the raw truth of existence. What he found there wasn’t just simplicity, it was meaning. Read on...
When Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh finally lifted the veil on baby Dua Padukone Singh, this Diwali, offering the public its very first glimpse of their little miracle... the internet was fired up and responded with exactly the sort of gleeful chaos one expects from online fandom. The image of the power couple adorned in Sabyasachi red-maroon attire with baby Dua perched on her mother’s lap streamed across feeds, a perfect festival moment. Hang on... it doesn't end here... TheGlitz finds out there is a baby doppelgänger angle here too.

There’s a saying that travel opens the mind and fills the heart... and nowhere did I feel this more than on my journey through Belgium, thanks to Belgium Tourism. For an Indian traveller like me, Belgium was both familiar and foreign, a place where centuries-old history sits beside modern culture, where art meets everyday life, and where every meal feels like a celebration. My route covered Bruges, Ghent, Antwerp, and Brussels... each city unique, yet stitched together by that quintessential Belgian charm.
Forget the monument-hopping madness of conventional travel. These seven destinations for the weary soul offer something altogether different. This is a pilgrimage for the spiritually exhausted, the digitally drained, the souls seeking more than another passport stamp. From Croatia's mystical healing islands to Sedona's red rock revelations, these sanctuaries provide what no luxury hotel can deliver: genuine restoration. Read on.
There are places the global elite know but rarely speak about. Courchevel is one of them. While most travellers associate this French Alpine sanctuary with its legendary winter glamour, TheGlitz gives you an exclusive look into why Courchevel's summer season has become a whispered recommendation among luxury travel connoisseurs worldwide. This is the Alps as they were meant to be experienced—intimately, elegantly, and far from the madding crowd. Read on.
