About the Presentation

India Hicks: Island Life and Beyond

Born in London, England from both British and design royalty, India now lives on a small island in the Bahamas, with her partner and their five children.  From there she runs her lifestyle brand, which is sold through a network of modern, strong, entrepreneurial women, and shares her world through her design books and social media.  Her third book, "India Hicks: Island Life," is inspired by her British heritage and Bahamian home.  India will give event attendees a look into the book’s subtle palette of island life: the family tradition of tablescaping; the warm anarchy of a family kitchen; the lazy pleasure of porches; the drama of entertaining; the “more is more” style of living with collections; the importance of shoe-string decorating and creative repurposing; and leaving room for spaces of sanctuary.  A light luncheon and wine will be served.  India will sign "India Hicks: Island Life" after her presentation, and books will be available for purchase.  As you shop before and after the presentation, look out for “India’s Faves” which are items India personally selected as key pieces you should buy at the Show.

This event has limited seating and is expected to sell out.  Buy your tickets now to guarantee your space!

About India Hicks

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, daughter to the Earl and Countess Mountbatten of Burma. Her grandfather was the last viceroy of India, hence her name.

Her godfather is the Prince of Wales and India was a bridesmaid at his wedding to Lady Diana.

After graduating from the New England School of photography, she moved to New York and was hired by Ralph Lauren for her first modeling job, leading to a career on the other side of the camera throughout the 1980s and 1990s.

India now lives on a small island in the Bahamas, with her partner and their five children. Here, she has shared and documented her multidimensional, unpredictable life through social media, her three lifestyle books ("Island Life", "Island Beauty," and "Island Style"), and her website.

India is connected to a broad spectrum of tastemakers and is established as an influencer amongst modern, strong, entrepreneurial women.

After a successful career designing collections of bath & beauty products, bedding and jewelry in partnership with others the time for change arrived. With two strong business minded partners she launched her own lifestyle brand: India Hicks. Rather than in traditional retail, these collections are sold through networks of entrepreneurial women, creating a more meaningful shopping experience.

Unencumbered by tradition, India has made bold life choices that inspire women to join her in the pursuit of an extraordinary life.
