Designer, entrepreneur, best-selling author, and mother of five, India Hicks will speak at the Empire State Rare Book and Print Fair about her latest book Lady Pamela: My Mother's Extraordinary Years as Daughter to the Viceroy of India, Lady-in-Waiting to the Queen, and Wife of David Hicks. Tickets cost $20 and include entry to the fair.India was born in London, England, and comes from both British and design royalty. Her father was famed interior decorator David Hicks, and her mother is Lady Pamela Hicks, whose father was the last Viceroy of India.
India has often made bold life choices, which have led to a multi-faceted, unexpected life journey. She has authored five design books, modeled for Ralph Lauren, among others, and has been a host for networks ranging from Bravo to the BBC. She has had her hand in the design world for over two decades – from hotels to home collections.
In 2015 India launched her eponymous direct sales brand. This beloved collection was informed by British heritage and a fresh perspective on island life and filled the cupboards of collectors for six years, closing its doors just ahead of the pandemic.
India has a podcast series – a look into the life of her extraordinary mother, Lady Pamela. These wonderfully intimate conversations between mother and daughter are a must-listen for anyone interested in history, entertaining, and diplomacy.
India’s fifth design book, An Entertaining Story, which was published by Rizzoli in 2020 and has been reprinted several times. India continues to consult with Lady Pamela: My Mother's Extraordinary Years as Daughter to the Viceroy of India, Lady-in-Waiting to the Queen, and Wife of David Hicks for ‘Women Supporting Women,’ a passionate group committed to providing the right help to nurture and empower young women who have been marginalized by society.
