Gen Z goes to work in style with Anushka Sen and Newme’s new line
MUMBAI: Officewear just got a Gen Z glow-up and it’s serving ambition with a side of attitude. Newme, the fashion-tech brand adored by Gen Z, has teamed up with actor and Gen Z style icon Anushka Sen to launch its first-ever co-designed collection WorkSsnIty. The 500-piece line is a bold step into the 9-to-5 world, tailored for the first-jobber, the side-hustler, and the caffeine-fuelled intern with a Pinterest board full of blazers.
From structured co-ords and pastel-hued tailoring to oversized blazers and breezy elevated basics, WorksenIty is anything but your boss’s wardrobe. Designed for the young and the restless, the collection ditches dull formals for confidence-soaked fits that are equal parts chic and workplace-ready.
“I’ve always admired Newme for celebrating Gen Z style,” said Anushka Sen, who stepped in as Creative CEO for this collection. “Workwear is an overlooked genre, and this is our way of saying bring your whole self to work, style and all.”
Sen didn’t just lend her name, she co-created the collection from concept to final fittings, ensuring each piece reflects the real-world aesthetic of young professionals. Her influence is front and centre in the #Staysenatwork campaign, which features her in scenarios from coffee runs to client meetings all while looking like the main character.
“WorksenIty is more than just clothes, it’s about self-expression at work,” said Newme co-founder and CEO Sumit Jasoria. “Gen Z is entering the workforce in huge numbers, and they’re bringing their individuality with them. With this collection, we’ve built a wardrobe that actually works for them.”
The drop also signals Newme’s evolution. Founded in 2022, the brand has quickly built cult status with over 14 experience stores and a lightning-fast delivery model that drops 500 plus new styles weekly. By adding workwear to its mix, Newme is growing with its audience showing up for job interviews, boardrooms, and every power move in between.
Exclusively available on the Newme app, website, and experience stores, WorksenIty proves one thing loud and clear Gen Z isn’t just dressing for the job they want. They’re dressing like they already own the place.

KPMG names Gary Wingrove as global chairman and CEO from October
Record Gmada bids signal rising demand as Rs 1,000 crore bet reshapes Tricity skyline
MUMBAI: KPMG has chosen continuity with a forward tilt. The firm has announced that Gary Wingrove will take over as global chairman and CEO of KPMG International, beginning a four year term from 1 October 2026. Currently serving as global chief operating officer, Wingrove steps into the top role after being nominated by the global board and elected by the global council.
A KPMG veteran with over 25 years at the firm, Wingrove has been closely involved in shaping its recent trajectory. As global COO, he has helped drive the firm’s Collective Strategy, focusing on operational integration, global investments and the steady expansion of the KPMG Delivery Network. He has also been at the forefront of KPMG’s digital push, including the rollout of AI enabled solutions across its global operations.
Before his global role, Wingrove served as CEO of KPMG Australia for nearly a decade, where he led a period of strong growth, almost doubling revenue, profitability and headcount while steering a cultural reset.
He succeeds Bill Thomas, who has led KPMG since 2017 and will work alongside Wingrove over the next six months to ensure a smooth transition.
Thomas leaves behind a firm that looks markedly different from when he took charge. Under his leadership, KPMG’s global revenues have risen by 55 per cent, and its workforce has expanded to more than 276,000 people. He also unified the network of member firms under the Collective Strategy, aligning priorities and strengthening governance.
His tenure saw heavy investment in technology and partnerships, with alliances spanning Microsoft, Google Cloud, SAP, Oracle and ServiceNow. These collaborations, along with platforms like KPMG Clara, have helped the firm scale its AI-led offerings and sharpen its competitive edge.
Beyond growth, Thomas also pushed improvements in audit quality and sustainability. Initiatives such as a multiyear global sustainability strategy and the Our Impact Plan have aimed to embed long term thinking into the firm’s operations and client services.
For Wingrove, the brief is clear but evolving. He has signalled a focus on agility, deep expertise and technology driven solutions as clients navigate an increasingly complex business landscape. He also emphasised KPMG’s identity as a people first organisation, supported by technology and unified through its global network.
The timing of the leadership change comes as KPMG continues to grow, reporting a 5.1 per cent rise in global revenue in FY25, with gains across tax and legal, audit and advisory services. Growth was recorded across all regions, despite a challenging macro environment.
As Wingrove prepares to take charge, the firm appears set on a familiar path with a sharper digital edge. Same playbook, perhaps, but with a renewed focus on speed, scale and smarter solutions.
