India Couture Week (ICW) showcases intricate craftsmanship, interesting trends, and the best of Indian crafts by leading couturiers from fashion epicenters like, Mumbai, Kolkata and New Delhi.
“Manish’s association with the FDCI has been special and he will set the rhythm of the ICW 2016 with his stunning rendition of true Indian craftsmanship and unmatched elegance. I’m looking forward to a spectacular show as Manish will set a new benchmark for sophistication with his dreamy silhouettes,” Sunil Sethi, president, FDCI said.
Manish said, “This July my label completes 11 years. My journey in Delhi started six years ago with India Couture Week. This helped me slowly and steadily getting the people in Delhi and north more aware about my work, which began to do very well with multi-designer stores. India Couture Week is most special to me as it has been most supportive to my journey in Delhi.”
