Khushi Kumar presented her runway debut on 21 February 2026 at Fashion Scout’s Ones to Watch showcase during London Fashion Week. The show took place at Protein Studios in Shoreditch, London. The eight-look collection, titled Kalanta — The House Awakens , examined ideas of protection, identity, and continuity through structured silhouettes and textile references drawn from Indian ceremonial dress. The collection combined sculpted corsetry, oversized tailoring, and fluid garme

Rohit Gandhi and Rahul Khanna’s Spring Summer Couture 2026 collection, titled Abyssal , develops its visual and structural language through references to deep-sea environments. The collection continues the designers’ long-standing interest in architectural construction, material layering, and controlled ornamentation within couture. The garments are built around structured silhouettes that prioritise form before surface detail. Tailoring, internal reinforcement, and pattern c

Victorinox is strengthening its watch business in India, shifting its positioning from a general accessory offering to a more focused presence in Swiss watchmaking. The brand, established more than 140 years ago and widely known for the Swiss Army Knife, is reinforcing its watchmaking credentials through its manufacturing base in Delémont, Switzerland. The company’s Watch Competence Centre in Delémont spans 17,800 square metres and has housed its consolidated watchmaking oper

There is an economy of silence in luxury: a set of houses that keep their mouths shut about price, refuse to run sales, and let their products do the talking. Call it stubbornness, call it arrogance, call it strategy—the result is the same. A Hermès Birkin, a Chanel Classic Flap, a Rolex Submariner, or a Patek Philippe Nautilus rarely, if ever, surfaces in a “sale” window. They are governed by a single, simple rule: price is an expression of meaning, and meaning must not be b

Actor Tamannaah Bhatia has entered the fine jewellery space with the launch of Tamannaah Fine Jewellery , a contemporary fine jewellery brand built around the idea of everyday luxury. Marking her move into entrepreneurship as both founder and creator, the brand blends modern design, craftsmanship, and jewellery designed to be worn beyond special occasions. The label is guided by the philosophy “Beyond the Occasion” , positioning fine jewellery as part of daily life rather th

Bangalore welcomes a new chapter in luxury fashion retail with the launch of Nuvrah , a 30,000-square-foot multi-designer destination conceived as an immersive, experience-led space. Designed as a departure from conventional warehouse-style luxury stores, Nuvrah brings together couture, bridal, occasion, and contemporary fashion within an environment that encourages discovery, pause, and engagement. Founded by Pawan Mehta and designed by architects Nisarg Shah and Inder Cha

When Rahul Mishra made his Paris Haute Couture Week debut in 2018, the landscape was still largely defined by Eurocentric heritage houses. His arrival introduced a distinctly different voice to the couture calendar, one rooted in Indian craft traditions, folk philosophies, and a deeply embedded artisan ecosystem. Over the years, collections such as Superheroes and Becoming Love established his reputation for narrative-driven couture that moves beyond surface aesthetics into

Maison Rami Kadi presented its Spring Summer 2026 couture collection, Elementa , in Meise, Belgium, unveiling a body of work shaped by the elemental forces of nature. Drawing from fire, water, earth, wind, and life, the collection explores how couture can express movement, transformation, and material intensity through form, surface, and craftsmanship. The collection unfolds through silhouettes that balance structure and fluidity. Sculptural forms are softened by layered cons

Dubai-born womenswear label Sands Fashion House presents Sunday Club , a collection shaped around the quieter rhythms of everyday life. Moving away from the playful energy of its debut, this new chapter leans into calm, comfort, and clothes designed to be worn without effort or occasion. Sunday Club is rooted in the small, familiar moments that define personal time. Morning coffee on a balcony, a slow walk in the afternoon, unplanned hours that don’t need styling. The colle

Delhi-based fashion label House of Mayah has released its latest collection, continuing its focus on relaxed silhouettes and a design language that prioritises movement, comfort, and longevity. The collection builds on the brand’s established aesthetic, favouring clothes designed for regular wear rather than seasonal statement dressing. The label is led by Deepali Mathur , Founder and Creative Designer, whose background spans fashion education at NIFT Delhi and further train

Summer Away ’s Holiday Resort ’26 collection, Athena , is shaped around evenings rather than days, drawing from the pace of summer nights on vacation when dressing feels unhurried and plans remain open-ended. The collection sits in that familiar in-between moment, when city streets slowly give way to coastal air, and the transition from dinner to late night happens without conscious effort. Athena reflects this shift, focusing on clothing that moves comfortably between settin

Women’s footwear today is expected to do more than complete an outfit. It needs to move fluidly through the day, adapt to shifting settings, and still hold its own when the moment calls for elegance. LANGUAGE’s latest women’s footwear collection responds to that expectation with a refined edit rooted in craftsmanship, comfort, and quiet glamour. Inspired by the ease of daytime dressing and the polish of evening wear, the collection focuses on silhouettes that feel celebratory

ASICS SportStyle has collaborated with Japanese fashion label doublet on a new sneaker, the GEL-QUANTUM™ 360 I AMP , built around a clear and playful concept inspired by the world of the Jurassic period. The design features a bold graphic print of a dinosaur’s head extending across the entire upper. Using 3D printing, the surface is given a textured, reptilian-skin–like finish, adding physical depth rather than relying only on visual pattern. Raised polyurethane elements are

NEER London is a leather goods brand that keeps its focus narrow. The current collection does not try to cover every category or mood. Instead, it presents a small range of bags designed around everyday formats, with attention given to layout, proportion, and long-term use. The overall look across the collection remains consistent. Shapes are familiar rather than experimental. Colours stay within a neutral range. Branding is minimal and does not dominate the surface of the ba

The last show of the Blenders Pride Fashion Tour did not take place inside a hall, or even on land. It unfolded on the Hooghly, with a barge anchored mid-river and the Howrah Bridge watching from behind, unchanged and unmoved. In that setting, Anamika Khanna presented an AK|OK collection that did not ask to be admired as craft in the traditional sense, but as something in the process of becoming. From the start, it was clear this was not about preserving technique in its fami

What most people don’t realize is that a luxury-scented detergent is not scented the way mass-market laundry powders are, where a sharp synthetic “fresh” note is simply added to mask chemical residue, but is constructed much closer to how a fine fragrance is built, starting with the choice of aroma molecules themselves. Instead of relying on volatile top notes that burn off during the wash cycle, these formulations use heavier fragrance compounds such as musks, woods, resins,

Abhishek Sharma’s latest couture collection, Ratiaranya , was presented in New Delhi in December through a format that resisted spectacle. Shown at The Upper House by Tivoli, the presentation unfolded as a contained experience, allowing the work to be read closely rather than consumed quickly. The collection draws from emotional states rather than overt narrative. References to awakening, desire and instinct appear subtly, carried through texture, form and movement instead of

House of Migo marks the festive season with a jewellery edit shaped for everything December holds — warm Christmas dinners, intimate reunions, and those last evenings of the year when dressing up becomes part of the celebration. The brand’s familiar blend of British cool and Indian design intuition runs through the collection, giving the pieces a clarity and identity that feel unmistakably theirs. Co-founders Anisha Mittal and Isha Goyal have built a label that does not chase

PAYAL KHANDWALA ends the year by returning to the language that has defined the label from the beginning—clarity of form, a preference for sculptural silhouettes, and fabrics that carry depth without excess. The new capsule, released this December, focuses on moments that feel slow, personal, and unforced. It is built around the idea of dressing for oneself rather than for spectacle. The collection reflects the brand’s understanding of the modern woman, the one Payal Khandwal

Rami Kadi Maison de Couture closed the second edition of THE EVENT with a runway that held the room’s attention from the moment the first twin models stepped out at Concrete, Alserkal Avenue. Presented as the night’s grand finale, the showcase brought together 35 couture looks, opening with pieces from the Maison’s “L’Éventail” collection and culminating in an ornate bridal gown worn by Emirati influencer Marwa Alhashmi. The presentation stayed true to Rami Kadi’s vocabulary
