Creating opportunities through Designs | Rahul Mishra | TEDxIIMAhmedabad

Rahul Mishra, the first Indian designer to showcase at the Paris Haute Couture Week and the first
Indian to win the International Woolmark Prize (in 2014) champions slow fashion with traditional
Indian textiles. His eponymous label with two flagship stores in India and a thriving national and
international distribution channel finds its genesis in the ideas of sustainability that present fashion as
a tool to create participation and empower the local craft community of India. The brand’s purpose
defines the process. The achingly slowed down process of hand-weaving and hand embroidery allows
to build sustainable livelihoods for more than 1000 artisans. Rahul has also been featured on the global
influential list of ‘BoF 500’ since 2014 and in 2019, was graced by the ‘Rare Talent of the Year’ award
at the Centre du Luxe Summit, Paris.
