Which collection are you most proud of, and why?

My first collection, The Floral Brew. As the name suggests, it was a collection brewing on my mind for a very long time. During covid, I took a pottery class, and did a lot of research on pottered ceramics, and the inspiration to develop digital prints from gorgeous ceramic designs around the world came to me. I love the delicateness of the silhouettes, the fabrics, and the color palette we used. The response to the collection was astounding, and that motivated me to go on this journey. The products from this collection are our best-selling products till today.

Where do you find inspiration for your designs?

I can't pinpoint just one source of inspiration, but I tend to find my biggest inspiration in reminiscing my childhood memories. A lot of them are filled with recollections of our vibrant home garden, my grandmother's delicate silk sarees, exposure to my mother's creations (she was a designer and owned a boutique for many years), and vintage heirlooms that my house was filled with. I also feel inspired when I travel and learn about the history and heritage of the particular country or city I'm traveling to.

Which designer in the world inspires you?

There are so many, but if I had to pick, I'd say Maria Grazia from the house of Dior and Karl Lagerfeld.
