Devyanshi Kukreja, BA (Hons) Sociology student at Indraprastha College for Women, says, “I’m happy but also really nervous! I’m stepping out of the house after a long time, and haven’t attended physical classes in the last two years so today is kinda big deal for me. But, I decided to invest in my OOTD because college means casuals clothes unlike school so I really needed to look my best.”
