Vibrant colours, intrinsic
shapes, and an assortment of textures of fabrics are what come to
mind when you think of the word ‘fashion’. But, it is so much
more than just that! It is the amalgamation of one's ideas, opinions,
behaviour, culture and individual philosophy which is represented
skilfully
in the garments they design. This means that every fashion designer
is making a mark of their own, by bringing to the world some of the
most original forms of human expressions. So, we bring to you a list
of some of the most successful fashion designers to boost the
motivation of all the aspiring designers who are preparing for
undergraduate
admissions in
design this year.
Bibhu Mohapatra
After completing his degree in
fashion, worked
for Gilles
Mendel,
who is the CEO
of the iconic furrier J. Mendel. This is seen as a great achievement
for an Indian designer in America. He maintained
his position at the label as a Design Director for 9 years.
Proving his talents and great skills in the art of fashion
at the label, he
then moved to designing custom cocktails
dresses, couture
evening gowns, for
his own clients
in the
city of New
York. His clients also included the former First Lady of United
States of America, Michelle Obama. Such huge feats have thus etched
his name in the industry.
Sabyasachi Mukherjee
Sabyasachi is a name that
almost all aspiring designers have heard and he definitely deserves
this fame. Coming from a middle-class Bengali household, Mukherjee
wanted to strive to be in the fashion industry. So, he got his
fashion degree and within 4 months, launched his own namesake label.
His ideology about fashion - ‘clothes should just be an extension
of one's intellect’, shines throughout his work; his label which
started with three people, now designs garments for some of the
biggest names of Bollywood like Vidya Balan, Deepika Padukone,
Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, etc. He also designed the wedding attire for
Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma’s wedding!
Manish Arora
One of the most celebrated and
inspiring fashion designers of India, Manish Arora has made a name
for himself after rigorous hard-work and years of toil. His trademark
palette of pink and gold is something everyone knows him for in India
and internationally. He began his career after graduating with a
fashion degree in 1994, and he from then, designed clothes for stars
such as Rihanna, Lady Gaga, MIA and Katy Perry!
These were three of the most
inspiring names in the Indian fashion industry that we thought you
should know about. We hope they give you the required motivation for
preparing for your
UG Entrance exam
in design, that is SEED and have a great career ahead!
