SPILL THE CHAI ☕ 🇮🇳 EP 8

This week with the iconic @payalsinghal.

Biggest thanks to @ranibyraja for making this happen. Always shout the people who open the doors.

Payal launched her label in 1999 at just 21 and spent the last 27 years building one of South Asia’s most defining contemporary fashion houses. East meets west, rooted in craft and culture, and somehow still the most grounded person in the room.

We were so honoured to sit down with her at the Payal Singal space in @perniaspopupshop Bandra, that we renamed the episode. Some guests just deserve their own show.

And if you’ve been looking for pieces that work in Mumbai and Manhattan, the new PS Collection is landing this summer.

Watch this space!

For Ep 2 of UNBIASED CUT — I sat down with @payalsinghal to talk about her SS’26 collection ‘Shahnameh’, and how she continues to reinvent the modern Indian aesthetic. We discuss designing Indianwear beyond traditional occasions, evolving a 27-year-old brand, and why a classic red lehenga and Payal are probably a recipe for disaster!

𝗦𝗵𝗮𝗵𝗻𝗮𝗺𝗲𝗵 | ‘Saher’ brings together intricate detail and refined craftsmanship in every element. The black georgette choli is adorned with gold and silver floral embroidery, with delicate beadwork tracing the straps and neckline. An open back finished with a soft tie-up bow adds contrast to the richly worked surface. Paired with an organza lehenga and a stone net laced dupatta edged in textured gold fringe, the ensemble is layered in depth, dimension, and considered finish.

In conversation with @divyakdsouza , stylist for our Shahnameh campaign, who brought his distinct creative perspective to the collection, highlighting its rich textures, intricate details, and powerful silhouettes.

Some collaborations feel instinctive, shaped by a shared appreciation for craftsmanship, storytelling, and individuality. Watch as he shares his perspective on the collection and the creative vision behind bringing this story to life.
