Femina Magazine - July - August 2025

In this issue

This Independence Day special is a celebration of strength in all its forms - bold, quiet, enduring.

Meet 10 exceptional women of the Indian Army who are breaking ground in roles once closed to them. From Colonels and Captains to Lance Naiks, these women in uniform aren’t looking for the spotlight, they’re just doing the work. Their stories of grit, courage and purpose are at the heart of this month’s issue.

Also inside: a rare look at the Army Wives Welfare Association (AWWA), an organisation built on kindness, community and silent strength.

In Fashion, we cut through the noise around “sustainability” with four Indian labels that are walking the talk — no greenwashing, no gimmicks, just circular design and conscious choices.

In Beauty, we leave behind “anti-ageing” and embrace slowness and honesty - from ageing with grace to failing at Hot Girl Pilates (and laughing through it).

In Features, we unpack the fatigue of endless dating content and explore what it really takes to unplug, reset, and raise resilient minds whether you’re parenting a child or healing the child within.

Thoughtful, precise and quietly daring, this is an issue to read, reflect on, and return to.
