Nikasha
A self-trained designer, a professionally trained psychoanalyst, an aesthete with interests in arts and crafts, Nikasha Tawadey made her debut in the Indian fashion industry in 2003 with her eponymous label ‘Nikasha’. She stood out as one of the promising designers, a sentiment echoed internationally with her designs gracing the racks at Selfridges in London and Macy's in San Francisco. While her aesthetic has been labelled as bohemian, vibrant and glam, artistic growth for this young designer has been, but a natural progression. Today she firmly carves her niche with style that is exceedingly refined, distinguishing her forte in structure, texturing of fabrics, colour and ethnic references. Her look today is global with ethnic craft as her mainstay. She now works with a missionary zeal to preserve and recreate traditional arts for a contemporary world.
