Shine chefs master originally launched her eponymous jewelry industry in 2009, gathers in May from a Pantene endorsement, recruitment in her best friend. Although she can photo, writing, parenting cook (baby Krishna is 9 months of age), and management simple exotic (her own cooking company, mainly producing spices, tea, salt), she remains firmly begin with pet drive. "We are not a modern company. We don't use any garment, whether artificially or a bit humble like sterling silver or precious sapphire," she said. "I never let a piece of jewelry, I don't want to wear my own."
This winter preparation is a typical busy for lakshmi. Before the season 8 cook premiere on December 1 - the first of a series all-star season, and end will be shot early next year. She, and prospected Padma jewelry collection Spring Festival last week 2011. She began working in this month's third works, in her autobiography explore relationship of food. We were caught lakshmi before speaking cook, Paris romance, and her enviable closet.
Top Chef season eight premieres in two weeks. Did the all-star cast up the stakes?
It's going to be so juicy — like the greatest hits of the last seven seasons. I spend so much time with these guys and got to know them so well the first time around, I get emotionally attached. It's like a fourth-grade teacher having to say goodbye to her class every year.
How has the Padma jewelry line evolved in the past year and a half?
When I first launched, it was much more delicate. I wanted to do something that was very basic, since it was all my own resources, from running up to 47th Street to buying the gold. Now it's bolder — I feel like I have a little more confidence to express myself as a designer. For this collection we looked at a lot of old images of Cher from the sixties and seventies. But it retains the same tribal ethos from fall, whether it's from Africa, the South Pacific, or southeast Asia.
Any impulse to expand into clothing or shoes?
I'm happy to leave shoes to Christian Louboutin and Manolo Blahnik. I wouldn't mind doing denim, lingerie, or evening bags.
What about baby clothes?
I think there are enough people doing that right now. I'm just enjoying my baby — I don't need to turn her into something commercial.
What sort of woman wears your designs?
She's definitely a city dweller, someone who is very culturally savvy and aware. Our woman is a sensualist; she's very tactile. And she's probably at least in her late 20s — the average price point of the jewelry is around $1,000, so it's an investment.
Who are your favorite designers?
I have a lot of Alexander McQueen, Antonio Berardi, Rick Owens, and Martin Margiela. I like how fluid their clothes are and how they flatter the body; they're very womanly and strong. And even though Lanvin is known for its washed-silk dresses, I love their jersey pieces.
