Padmanabh Singh
Mirror, mirror on the wall, who is the most stylish of them all? Padmanabh Singh, the prince of Jaipur, is a clear contender. With his undeniable swag and understated elegance, the royal may be young but he’s already making a mark in the fashion circuits. The 20-year-old recently made his catwalk debut with Italian fashion giant Dolce & Gabbana, whose clothes he often flaunts on social media to his 60,000 followers.

For his fashion week debut for D&G, Singh graced the ramp in a sleek, black robe-inspired tuxedo and cigarette pants. But it’s not just fashion on this man’s mind.



The prince is also heavily into conservation — namely water.

He was quoted saying, “Saving water is critical, particularly in Jaipur and our desert state of Rajasthan. We’re also trying to install solar panels at our residence, the museum at City Palace and Jaigarh Fort. It’s challenging because these are all heritage structures, but I’ll be very proud if we can make it happen.”

Good style and a good cause — now that’s a winning look.
