Manish Malhotra becomes the first Indian designer to showcase his fashion line, World Collection, at Harrods, London
India’s fashion industry has officially joined the 175th anniversary celebration of London’s luxury departmental store Harrods, with a special showcase of a fashion edit by couturier Manish Malhotra. As the first Indian fashion designer to have teamed up with Harrods, Manish has crafted a line of limited-edition garments that fuse India’s design grammar with the West’s style vocabulary. Titled World Collection, the edit reinterprets India’s textile crafts in contemporary context. “A little over a year ago, Harrods reached out to me with a vision to celebrate India and its craftsmanship, which immediately felt like a perfect fit. Their idea of showcasing India’s rich cultural heritage through a global luxury platform resonated deeply with my own commitment to preserving and elevating our traditional artistry,” says Manish.
