For: Her new collection ‘India Phoenix’.
Who is the ‘India Phoenix’ woman?
She’s every woman who struggles through her day against all odds and emerges triumphant. She’s the woman who travels for an hour and a half to work and back, runs a home and is a wife and mother. She makes her own way, never piggy backing on anyone.
Why did you choose popstar Raageshwari to open your show?
All the women walking for me are women of substance. Raageshwari was bed-ridden for a year with a debilitating disease but she has emerged stronger and more beautiful, phoenix-like after her recovery.
What is design to you?
Design to me is almost a compulsive obsession - I cannot see a space or fabric or canvas without my mind and vision clicking with ideas to enhance it to its paramount potential and aesthetic function in accordance with my vision.
