TRADITION WON’T SLIP OFF THEIR HEADS

Gandhis
Whether it rests in their genetic make-up or it’s a cultivated taste that runs in the family, the late Prime Minister Indira Gandhi, Congress chief Sonia and daughter Priyanka possess a similar dress and demeanour
Gandhis
From their love for the traditional handloom sari to soft checks and prints to even their chic short hairstyles and covering their heads with the pallu of the sari ever so often, the Gandhian trio is a picture of an ethnic yet modern charm

There is but a degree of separation in their modes of fashion though. While Priyanka chooses a more casual and easy manner to her sari drapes, Sonia seems to have a prim and proper approach, pinning her crisp pallu on her shoulder
