Growing up in a small town, oblivious to the outside world, my understanding  of the world was limited to my very small circle of comfort within Patna. The lens through which i saw the rest of our country and beyond was a 'square box with a screen and with the help of magic hand held device that could change channels.

What caught my attention in those days of ignorance were the fancy dresses and costumes worn by real people as well as animated characters.

It was only after i went to mumbai on a school trip that i saw the wonders of modern fashion.

I remember, very distinctly, the feeling of awe and absolute joy as i entered the 'FOREVER 21' store, feeling the smooth and silky fabrics all around me.

I knew then and there that i was at the beginning stages of an obsessive passion for fashion.s

Also bought my first formal wear from 'Solly', with which i was completely satisfied.

On very first interview of my life, i wore the same and that made me feel so comfortable and confident.

Clothes not only communicate a lot about people and and their lives but also develops confidence in people.

Thankyou ABG!
