“You can have anything in your life if you dress for it.” – Edith Head
As we understand from this quote, the importance of clothing is a powerful influencing factor in creating an individual’s perception. Clothing reflects the identity of taste, standard, and personality.
It creates a lasting impression and goodwill in the viewer’s minds. This underlines the role of fashion designers and clothing specialists who have crafted the perfect range of garments that have revolutionized the presentation of dressing. The designers create compelling couture that sparks a new trend.

Dimple, please brief our audience about your business, its background, and what inspired you in venturing into the clothing sector.
Being from a family with a business background in the clothing line, it was always in the back of my head to create something new and trendy out of new fabrics and upcoming designs. With the awareness of the variety of fabrics, different stitching methods, current dressing patterns, and industry norms, I developed an interest and attachment to the clothing business.
Tell us more about your decision in entering the fashion world and what made you begin your business.
Since childhood, I have always admired the fashion world, and watching fashion icons eventually made it become my passion for being among them by designing on my own. Moreover, after discovering the importance of dressing in human lives, I thought to bring in a positive change through my creativity.
Please brief us about your journey in the industry and how you have made the business excel in its niche.
Honesty is the best policy. I always believe in being a woman of my word. I always try to fulfill my commitments and promises to every person I meet, which adds value to my business and increases brand loyalty, converting my client and team into my extended family.
What are the reasons for your success, and which factors helped you stand out?
Being a team of customized designers, we always try to understand the emotions behind the clients’ wants and needs for the moment and consider their respective budgets. I understand the client’s expectations, observe their physical stature, and suggest customized designs that help sharpen their personality. Apart from the designs, our team suggests different patterns, styles, and fabric options that best suit the occasion.
What would be your advice to budding entrepreneurs who aspire to venture into the modern garment industry?
I would like to advise all blooming buds to firstly make sure of the field they fit the most in and what kind of product they can cater with perfection. Focus on your product development rather than what others are doing. At last, the main part is to create a product that solves the problem in our daily needs or meets the specific wants of a person.
Being customer-centric is the essential aspect of being a designer, as it becomes clear and easy to work on the combination of creative ideas with customer needs. One happy customer will open the door to multiple opportunities. Remember this always.
Being an experienced leader, share your opinion on how adopting modern technologies like AI and ML impacts the MedTech space and how you are adapting to this change?
In today’s time, technologies have overpowered everything, and it depends on how you use them. I believe in using it right by giving a lot of accessible services in terms of placing orders till delivery to save time and cater to more people. The applications of computer graphics and 3D designs in Computer-Aided Design (CAD) enable designers to create, customize, and develop innovative garment designs.
The modern applications of robotics in the apparel manufacturing industry have brought in high accuracy, splendid finish, and impressive quality with phenomenal machining speeds. The data generation with customization based on the details fed in has given the designers the arm of expert and reliable supporters.
