The third season of Netflix’s Dubai Bling served up oodles of sass and style. Topping the charts on both counts was Farhana Bodi, the only Indian-origin cast member who is also an established fashion content creator. Known for her glamorous sartorial choices, Bodi’s lifestyle embodies maximalism to its fullest. However, she also insists on the importance of developing your own fashion aesthetic, which can lend itself to specific events and occasions. Here are the three rules Bodi lays down to help you curate your style mantra.

1. Find your fashion voice  

The first rule, Bodi says, is to understand the pieces that resonate with you. “Instead of being swayed by trends, focus only on those that align with your personality and enhance your brand. Not every trend will suit everyone; prioritise ones that reflect your style and values. I am partial to classic pieces with a contemporary twist,” she explains.
