Picture Spread

Little-known Delhi Institute of Heritage Research and Management in the Qutub Institutional Area put up an archival treasure trove of glass negatives, 19th century cameras (below) and hundreds of rare photos by b/w chroniclers Raja Deen Dayal, Sunil Jana, Bourne & Shepherd and Johnston & Hoffman on display. Many visitors were also surprised to learn that the institute, affiliated to the Indraprastha University, offers MA degrees in archaeology and conservation. Don't jump the line.

A HYATT OF COLOURS: No one could accuse designer Kavita Bhartia of being dull. Her fashion show at Hyatt Regency in Delhi last week was a riot of every colour she could probably think of-sometimes with unfortunate consequences. So there were fluorescent pink, flaming orange, neon green and other startling shades on a range of Indian, western and fusion outfits. Interesting though that the men were swathed in colour just as much as the women. Other saving graces: a multiple-layered skirt worn by Michelle Innes; a snipped and slashed green top on Dipannita Sharma.
