"It is time we get real time. We get celebrating our curves. The Bengali women are generally plump and no reason for them to feel awakward about their clothes, which need not be salwars and sareers only.. If anorexic can be the 'in' thing, so be the other ones," designer Devipriya Guha, initiator of the whole event, said.

"If girls can get over the sense of discomfort over their bodies,and look confident then they will look the perfect diva. Struggling to become size zero is passe in Indian situation," singer Rimita Mukherjee, present at the show, said.
