5 reasons you need to be at the Elle Breast Cancer Carnival
- Now in its twelfth year, ELLE Breast Cancer Carnival’s Music for a Cause brings together exciting new names in music, namely the gifted Sonam Kalra whose Sufi Gospel project is as good for your mood as it is for your soul.
- The Designer Bazaar allows you to update your wardrobe with the latest from Péro, Antar-Agni, Bodice, Dhruv Kapoor, Cord and more: all priced below Rs 10,000. Cue the jaw drop.
- Don’t miss the ELLE fashion booth where our fashion editors have curated special pieces from India’s top designers at thrilling discounts. We’re talking up to 70% off on Shivan and Narresh, Payal Khandwala, Atsu, Amrapali and many more, so make sure you get there early.
- Every year, the Silent Auction allows attendees to bid for designer products and luxury experiences from major brands.
