Sure, the Jaipur Literature Festival is the biggest literature festival in the country.

But you already knew that.

It’s also the one glamorous event that the book world can hold up against several fresh-faced lit fests, riding on the arrival of famous names and famous faces from across the world.

But you already knew that too.

The deal is, despite all the supposed elitism and unattainability of the Jaipur Literature Festival, it’s actually the perfect place to flaunt your individual selves.

Have an erratic side to your everyday suit-booted look? Flaunt it. Want to look hippie-esque cool? The Jaipur Lit Fest is the place to be.

For the next five days of the festival, we’ll be bringing you snapshots of delightful, quirky fashion – as sported by various attendees at this year’s JLF.

Take a look at Day One’s finest:
