Its enduring presence stands as a testament to the platform’s deep impact on the business of fashion, the creative economy, and India’s evolving global style narrative. With its bi-annual format in Mumbai and New Delhi the platform has been instrumental in shaping India’s fashion narrative both locally and globally. Backed by Lakmē, Reliance Brands Ltd., and FDCI, the upcoming edition promises a dynamic and immersive celebration of Indian design, with a focus on sustainability, diversity, and the future of fashion.
Sunanda Khaitan, Vice President, Lakmē India, shared, “Lakmē Fashion Week has stood at the forefront of shaping the narrative of Indian fashion and beauty for over a quarter of a century.
