Speaking of being the showstopper for Punit Balana, Diana was quoted, “I have always been very minimalistic and I prefer being comfortable in what I am wearing. Punit’s clothes are perfect for a casual day out. I am looking forward to walking for him at the Lakme Fashion Week.” As for Punit Balana, “Diana was a perfect choice” as a showstopper. “Her personal style emulates the essence of Bagru, which showcases very contemporary yet comfortable silhouettes,” he said. Known for her penchant to pull off fuss-free styles with an effortless charm and an easy smile, Diana Penty epitomises all things simplistic and minimal yet classy and fabulous.
