RAHUL MISHRA
Young Fashion designer pass-out from NID, has something to give back to society & is one
who thinks about our rich Indian tradition.
in his words;
Design
"It is for the people, of the people, by the people.
I believe the best way for an Indian designer to make it big is by being Indian in his approach.
Dior is very French. Armani is truly Italian. I showcase the splendour of Indian fabric and design.
I don’t believe in over designing.
While designing, you are tempted to put on extra, and that’s when you spoil it.
The best compliment a lady wearing my clothes will get is, “you are looking beautiful”, not “your dress is looking beautiful”.
Clothes should take the personality of the wearer just like liquid takes the shape of its container, not vice versa.
For me, each garment is styled according to the flow and texturing or embroidery on the fabric.
Let the craft lead the way. Tailoring and cutting are important for me.
The last thing I want someone to say is ‘Rahul Mishra is repetitive’."
some of his creations from traditional handloom fabrics from
Maheshwar, Chanderi & Banaras.
