Runway Show Director| Fashion & Lifestyle Blogger| Content Creator| Educator

Dear Readers, I’m here to spin a trendy yarn with a spectacular display of Indian traditional textiles, apparel, accessories, art and craft. With each runway I curate, every blog I pen, every silhouette I style and every drape I define, I seek to blend the roots of Indian Heritage with the rhythm of modern expression. Do remember, Magnificence is handcrafted!

Vision- Crafting Culture into Couture!

“In order to be irreplaceable, one must always be different.”
– Coco Chanel

Standing out isn’t just a choice; it’s a calling.
I believe in creating styles that don’t chase trends but tell a story- of heritage, emotion and identity.

And this story flows in reverse- it begins in the roots and unfolds on the ramp. That’s where culture walks in couture.

At Tale of a Trend, every look is a narrative- bold, rooted, and redefined. Come, walk through the corridors of culture stitched into couture.

Life is a ramp! WALK IN STYLE!!
