As we end every financial year, and look back at the year that was with hope for the year that will be, it is time to go back to the drawing boards. A wise man once said that he always takes a restart at life at the beginning of every year.
The fashion retail category continues to lead modern retail in India backed by the ever growing dreams of the Indian fashion consumer.The journey of fashion from “need” to “want” and now to “aspire” is truly on its way.

Indeed, what better time than this than to absorb assimilate and successfully ride the many movements and opportunities that lie before the fashion industry.
