A few months back, a few screengrabs were shared on the discussion platform, Reddit, which featured Nancy Tyagi's DM in the background. What was noteworthy was that a user claimed in the comment section of that screengrab that Nancy often messages several brands and asks them to collaborate. Later, she either does not use their stuff, or if she does, the influencer does not tag or give credit to those brands. The brand also shared a detail that Nancy received a choker from them, and the brand's officials have been texting her to tag them, but she is not replying.
Nancy Tyagi is a 23-year-old fashion influencer born in the Baranwa village of Uttar Pradesh. In 2020, she moved to New Delhi to study for UPSC exams. However, the world was hit with lockdown, which allowed Nancy to listen to her heart's calling. The financial difficulties gave Nancy the idea to create fashion from scratch. While she didn't receive instant success, she kept working hard and posted videos of her self-stitched outfits for 1.5 years.
