【英文原文】

Sari and Catsuit, Mumbai (Bombay), India, 1999
"They're well-off, well-educated, widely traveled, fluent in several languages. Nakshatra Reddy is a biochemist, married to a prosperous businessman in Mumbai (formerly Bombay). Her daughter Meghana (in a PVC catsuit of her own design) is a model and former host on the music video channel VTV. Another daughter models full-time, and a third works for Swatch, the trendy Swiss watchmaker. They are elites, and the global marketplace for goods, information, and style is their corner store."

From "A World Together," August 1999, National Geographic magazine

【中文翻譯

她們富有,受過良好教育,遊歷豐富,精通幾種語言。Nakshatra Reddy是一個生物化學家,嫁給了孟買一個富裕的商人。她的女兒Meghana(穿着她自己設計的氯綸緊身連衣褲)是模特,而且是音樂電視頻道VTV的前主持人。另一個女兒是專職模特,而三女兒在時尚的瑞士鐘錶集團Swatch工作。她們都是精英,商品、知識和時尚的全球市場就像是她們的街頭小店。
