Renai-essence ~ Styled Editorial
October 2019
“Man is a measure of all things,” goes a popular Roman philosophy at the time of high Italian Renaissance. It implies that we are seekers of beauty and give meaning to our experiences that are accumulated by our various travels and cultural meanderings. If you are a lover of high culture and architecture, then for many Italy will be a natural choice to elope or wed. We time travelled to a medieval county in Tuscany where beauty is preserved like a rich artistic heritage to explore our Renai-‘essence’ in styling and aesthetics. A fine marriage of Italian and Asian heritage was achieved by flying down the finest Indian couture by designer Anamika Khanna who has an uncompromising artistic vision which fit beautifully in the Tuscan Villa Monsoglio setting.
The editorial is published in the credible wedding blog Magnolia Rouge.
