A Window to Our Designers and Their Specializations

In creative industries, a “forte” makes an artist or a designer stand apart

We have been in business for the past few months. Over this span of time, we have come across some extremely talented and creative Fashion Designers. Located in various regions across Delhi and Gurgaon, these couturiers are exceptionally good at what they do. Here, “what they do” holds importance because each of them has their own niche.

One may say that creativity is “unbound”. However, most creative people bring together various worldly aspects (both material and otherwise) into their area of specialization. This originality, arising from an amalgamation of even the most unrelated elements, can be seen in their creative offerings to the world.

The designers that we talk of are masters of their trade. They bring about their visions and ideas in the form of beautifully designed pieces of clothing.

Red Couture – Manpreet

Specialization – Wedding wear, Gowns, Designer wear, Sarees and Drapes

Where- Gurgaon

Manpreet grew up in a true blue Punjabi family and has always been fascinated by the “chatak” colors found aplenty in Indian weddings. Her background became an inspiration that drew her into building Red Couture, one of the leading label in fashion and luxury goods sector in Gurgaon.
Manpreet is the go to designer for elegantly designed clothing. When you are on the mission of “wowing” everyone at a grand Indian wedding, you must go for Manpreet’s designs.

AHARIN India – Prasansha & Ashish

Specialization – Ethnic, Indo western

The beauty of ethnic clothing lies in “colorful yet elegant”. Are you in a bubbly-girl mood today? Go for that beautiful floral printed kurti and show off your feminine side. Want to stand apart and make a mark while exhibiting love for your roots? Indo-Western in the way to go.
Prasansha and Ashish are the dynamic duo behind AHARIN. They believe fashion to be an expression of artistic sensibilities and are inspired by the vintage forms of the world around us. No wonder, their Indo Western designs are quite popular and have been exhibited at various renowned Fashion shows.

Men’s Couture – Narayan Shah

For those of you who were wondering if we ever came across some “Like a Boss” men’s fashion designers. Yes we did.
Men’s Couture by Narayan Shah is located in Shahpur Jat, amongst a number of “women only” fashion houses. Narayan understand that being fashion conscious is not a trait restricted to the ladies. Weather you proudly wear your “fashion conscious” tag on your sleeve or are shy in admitting that you DO make a fuss over picking just the right suit, Men’s couture has an offering for all. His mantra being “customization is the key”, Narayan specializes in Ethnic, Indo western and Western wear for men.
