I'm an American searching for some sort of parameters, a way of life - I'm looking for a slight formality, for a place where you can never be overdressed.
From Waris Ahluwalia
I'm a traditionalist with suits. It doesn't need extra pockets, and I don't want headphone jacks in my jacket. I appreciate designers who do different things, but for me, the most basic version of that item is what I want.
I like there to be some interest in every element of my life.
I'm surprised as anyone about where I've ended up. Maybe it's because I say yes to things.
If people want to think I'm an Indian prince, I don't want to dispel that notion.
I have always had a sense of curiosity and aspiration.
My job is to put myself out there. It's beyond my control how I'm perceived.
My first workshop was in Rome, and that was the start of House of Waris. In a little magical atelier, a goldsmith, his apprentice, his stone setter - and that was where it began.
I made two rings for myself, and when I was in Los Angeles, I walked into a store called Maxfields, and they essentially bought them off my hands.
I don't think men get enough flowers. A deeper pink or red peonies are my favorite. But I'll take anything, really.
