About me
"How do you define fashion?" Something to think about, right? This is Sahithi, a newbie to the platform with many curious thoughts and questions and a strong desire to learn and gain experience. I recently graduated with an MA in Fashion Design Womenswear from Istituto Marangoni, London. I want to broaden my network, connections, and expertise through exciting projects, collaborations, and meeting vibrant people worldwide. I will impress you with my effective communication and proactive approach towards tasks. I have a proven track record of creative approaches, design thinking and quick adaptability to new environments. Hoping to connect with you all for a better and new tomorrow in the fashion world.

  • Impressions
    ImpressionsPlaying with the fabric and textures has always been exciting. The more I explore, the more I fall in love with the characteristics of the fabric. One such project is "Impressions." It is an enthralling journey of tracing the impression created by tight clothes on a woman's body, the concept inspired by the photographer Justin Bartel's impressions collection. Exploring the multifaceted relationship between the female body and clothing has been a fascinating realm of fashion.
  • Crimson Waves AW'23
    Crimson Waves AW'23The collection Crimson Waves is inspired by the menstrual cycle of a woman. It has been a whisper word for a very long period of time, but only a woman knows the beauty and pain of it, isn't it? The design elements, structure, mood and colours all reflect the sensual and bold side of being a woman. The collection takes you through an enthralling journey of beauty.
