Dhruv Kapoor marked a significant moment for Indian fashion on the official Milan Fashion Week runway with a Spring/Summer 2027 collection that fused technical precision with emotional flourish. Titled in a cyber-romantic register, the show translated digital-era anxieties and intimacy into sharply engineered silhouettes, luminous surfaces and a distinctly global point of view.
Organised jointly by Ehsaas Charitable Trust, Spot’less Fashion Magazine, and DCT Model Management at Arya Auditorium, the Season-5 Grand Finale crowned Vedika (Miss), Monica Chhabra (Mrs.), and Rajen Sharma (Mr.) following rigorous runway, presentation, and jury Q&A rounds.
At London Fashion Week, Lovebirds presented a collection that balanced sculptural restraint with ease, pairing fluid architectural silhouettes with circular handloom cottons in a palette that felt both cosmopolitan and rooted. The label's showing underscored a growing appetite for Indian craft reframed through contemporary tailoring and low-waste design thinking.
In Mumbai, Chanakya School of Craft is marking four decades of hand-embroidery practice that has quietly shaped the surfaces of Parisian haute couture. The milestone underscores a rare continuity of artisanal labour, where Indian craftsmanship remains embedded in the most exacting ateliers of Europe.
As luxury houses seek deeper provenance and cultural specificity, Chanakya's work stands as both a technical resource and a statement of soft power: a Mumbai-based craft institution whose stitches travel from Indian hands to the Paris runway.
