Vandita’s own Grooming started during her childhood days with her father who is now a Retired Colonel from the Indian Army. She learnt the basics of proper protocol, etiquette and dressing at an early age. Using this information as a foundation, she became apt at such matters as dress code, calling cards, introductions, invitations and responses, official dinners, seating and precedence, forms of address, and arranging visits for important visitors. This early exposure to Grooming & Protocol certainly helped her extensively with her career progression! During her flying career and her life, friends and colleagues often approached her to help them with their Image, Styling and Grooming. She has, moreover, attempted to apply the same suggestions in her own life, not; she ventures to think, without some measure of success. Hence the job of an Image Consultant & Trainer was ideal for her when she finally decided to bid adieu to her Sarong Kebaya (Singapore Airline uniform)
