about

Hi! I am a womenswear fashion designer who has graduated from the Parsons School of Design, New York with a minor in Creative Entrepreneurship and is currently working as a designer at 'Tanya Taylor'. Born and raised in Mumbai, India has immersed me with an appreciation for design, particularly for the exquisite textiles and meticulous artisanal craftsmanship that I was exposed to early on while living there.
​
It was this fascination with design that inspired me to pursue my education in fashion. My experience through my education overseas has lent me invaluable exposure and a global outlook, equipping me with not only an array of skills, but critical thinking techniques that have often helped me bring a unique perspective to the table. During the course of my studies, I have had some incredible opportunities to work with renowned fashion brands like 'Ralph Lauren’, ‘Oscar de la Renta’ and ‘Derek Lam’.
​
I want to use fashion to give back to the communities that I care about and bring to the forefront the ancient green practices of my country, while telling the story of the humble craftsman. I want to give him visibility, opportunity and credibility and empower him economically by creating a sustainable ecosystem. My design ideology is to incorporate ‘Evolved design thinking, with Ancient ways of making’ in order to make clothing that is both fashion forward and energy efficient. I am a designer who aspires to make beautiful, relevant and responsible clothing for a complex and ever changing fashion industry, having a global voice yet using a language that is my own.
