After her editorship with Marie Claire ended she worked as Editorial Director at Blouin Artinfo based in New York. [4][5] Her views about fashion have been quoted in the media. For example, she believes that fashion should be ethical and sustainable and not just for elites but for the masses,[6] that the general public should take fashion more seriously,[7] and that the fashion industry should be more active towards influencing future styles rather than merely reporting what people have been wearing.[8] In 2011, she criticized a decision by Vogue magazine to employ fashion models younger than eighteen years old.[9] She interviewed Paris Hilton and described her as "down-to-earth"[10] and noted that Hilton loves Indian fashion designers.[11] Haridas is married and lives in Gurgaon.[12]
