Priyanka Chopra Jonas needs some help with her mangalsutra. She’s in the middle of a traffic-stopping photo shoot in Brooklyn, when Vogue’s guest editor and celebrated designer singer Sabyasachi Mukherjee steps in to give her a hand. He untangles the sacred necklace at a zebra crossing. We are in Park Slope, a leafy residential neighbourhood with rows of brick houses, indie cafés and the typical bustle of New York life—strollers, skateboards and the odd garbage truck. “Sabya, should I have Diana walk down the street with me?” she asks the designer, who is curating the shots. He smiles with approval. Diana is Chopra’s chihuahua-terrier named after the late Princess of Wales. “Diana is my princess,” she says proudly. “She was adopted and lives a grand life now.” And grand it is—the pup sleeps in between the actor and her pop star husband of almost a year, Nick Jonas. “I keep moving her to the side, but she keeps coming back to the middle. She’s so cute, you can’t help it.”
