Great food, tempting deals, live music – and all for a good cause. Reason enough for Delhi to earn some serious karma points. On Sunday evening, the Taj Mahal Hotel hosted ELLE’s vintage-themed Carnival for a Cause to raise awareness about breast cancer.
Designer wear from names like Gaurav Gupta, Payal Singhal, Varun Bahl, Abraham & Thakore and 11.11 were up for grabs at crazy discounts, and the silent auction from luxury labels like Tod’s, Versace, Louis Vuitton, Chanel, Gucci and Missoni was the highlight of the evening; with all proceeds going to Ogaan Cancer Foundation. There were Teriyaki chicken satays, Turkish chilly batter fried prawns, endless wine, Millers beer and Grey Goose cocktails to fill up on, while Delhi band BISMARC’s covers of everything from Adele to Shakira (and an impromptu singing spree by Jaideep Sippy) got the peeps dancing all evening.
We spotted Sujata Assomull Sippy, Priyanka Modi, Archana Jain, Ambika Anand, Alpana & Neeraj, Atsu, Varun Bahl, Rohit Gandhi, Rahul Khanna, Mayank Singh Kaul, Tarun Khilwal, Sanjay and Mohini Guleria, Soni Aggarwal, to name a few.
ELLE Carnival for a Cause heads to Bangalore and Mumbai next month. Get ready to get spending.
