Why fashion as profession? Since childhood I have always seen myself as a creative person. We all have a creative person within us; it’s only a matter of being aware of it. Since my young days, I have seen my grandma doing her stitching, so fabrics and fibres were always around me. Somewhere, all this inspired me and in addition to it, I always had this knack within me…. Design philosophy… I make it a point that my design philosophy evolve from one season to another. I borrow my inspiration from anywhere, but always keep in mind that the approach has to be inherent. I like to design for women who are modern, contemporary and believe in experimenting and breaking the norms or challenging themselves but without trying to shock the world. Your first break…I launched my label in 2004 and started of with my debut show at Wills India Fashion Week which gained me critical appreciation. But then for the Spring-Summer 2009 collection, I joined hands with Delhi Fashion Week followed by a shift to WLIFW in A-W 2009. Why then shifted back to WLIFW? I don’t want to comment on that…It was my personal choice and there are some ideologies which I follow and believe in, so there is no solid answer or reason behind it.
