“I think it is very important to be ambitious in life irrespective of your interest areas. Also, I would like to suggest to my peer students to make as many mistakes as they can, as trial and error is the actual key to success.”

“Fashion Designers of today should focus on experimenting with materials and forms supporting sustainability and social good. A well-disciplined mindset is a key to achieving goals in this competitive world.”

Ayesha Singh Besin - CD Batch-2021

“With the emergence of new softwares and enhanced product development, it has become feasible for designers of today to work remotely with better productivity. Designers should emphasise functionality and empathy in their design.”

I launched Project 23n69e during the Covid 19 pandemic. It is a brand that creates garments that suit the urban soul, yet capture India’s artisan groups’ talent perfectly. Project 23°N 69°E hits the nail on the head - rooted in tradition, but also progressive in fashion.
