MUMBAI, India, March 22, 2024 -- Godrej L'Affaire, a curated experiential luxury lifestyle platform by Godrej Industries Limited and Associate Companies, has announced that more than 50 brands have collaborated with the platform for its sixth edition. Slated for Friday, March 29, 2024 at the brand's headquarters in Vikhroli, Mumbai, Godrej L'Affaire will be celebrating 'All Things Goodness' at the soirée.

Speaking about the sixth edition of Godrej L'Affaire, Tanya Dubash, Executive Director and Chief Brand Officer, Godrej Industries Limited and Associate Companies, said, "Creating personalized, immersive and authentic experiences for consumers in today's ever-evolving world is imperative for any brand. Godrej L'Affaire was launched to provide these opportunities for our inhouse brands as well as external non competing brands in the lifestyle space. Our objective has been to create a community of lifestyle aficionados and drive meaningful conversations around the lifestyle space."
She further added, "Our theme for this year is Goodness and we aim to underscore the significance of deliberate good choices that minimise negative impact and contributing positively to society. We are extremely excited to make Godrej L'Affaire 2024 an unforgettable affair."

Commenting on the first ever runway showcase by The Label Life, Malaika Arora, an Indian actress, Entrepreneur and Style Editor at The Label Life, said, "The Label Life has been a project very close to my heart since its inception. With our brand value centered around elevating wardrobe essentials for everyday smart dressing, when Godrej L'Affaire approached me for the runway showcase of our collection, I thought it would be the best strategic collaboration for us. Over the years, this experiential property has created a niche for itself, bringing together like-minded brands and providing them with an opportunity to engage with the right audience—from KOLs to content creators, from CXOs to working professionals. With ~60% of participation from women over the years for the soirée, I found a perfect synergy for showcasing our SS'24 collection. I am truly excited for The Label Life's debut on the runway at Godrej L'Affaire and hope to captivate the audience with an amazing collection."
The evening will also witness an electric performance by the band – The Bartender, the brain child of Mikey McCleary – award winning songwriter, composer and producer.

Music has a unique power to unite, inspire, and elevate, and I am thrilled the band gets to be a part of an event that celebrates the essence of lifestyle and creativity. Our take on timeless music and style will match Godrej L'Affaire's vibe perfectly, fostering a connection that'll last a long time," said Mikey McCleary, Music Director - The Bartender.
