Vogue India seems to be attracting plenty of criticism for its photoshoot. Also here.
The models, sadly unnamed as noted by most commentators, looked quite fetching and a lovely counterpoint to the high gloss of everything else - one hopes they were paid for their efforts. I think all the photoshoot effectively did by integrating the product with pictures of ordinary Indians was to highlight how ridiculously overpriced and ordinary designer tat is. The rest of Vogue India was equally unimpressive though India Shining does seem to have spawned all kinds of empty glossies (who, however, can be immune to buying them when they are offered up by paper boys at traffic junctions?!).
