Peppered with wry observations
and startling insights, ‘The Green Room’ is more than just the
story about one man. It is also about the evolution of the Indian fashion
industry over twenty- five years. It is both a deep personal journey and a
window into the enchanting yet fickle world of the rich and the famous, the
beautiful and the neurotic, the gossips and the bores. Candid, irreverent
and unfailingly entertaining, the book is a memoir of the man who gave India minimalism,
resort wear and eco-friendly clothing long before these words became
fashionable. It tells us the gripping tale of a fascinating life lived with
unusual courage and flair.
Speaking on the occasion Mr.
Kinjal Shah, COO, Crossword Bookstores said, “We are delighted to
launch Wendell Rodricks’ book on the Crossword platform. Being one of
India’s pioneering fashion designers, there is so much to learn and
discover from a book like ‘The Green Room.’ I look forward to
reading it and I wish him all the very best.”
