When you picture Asian attire you think of colourful silks, heavily
laden with elaborate embroideries with psychedelic designs however there
seems to be an artist that is revolutionising the stereotypical image
of the east. Dubbed the “Indian’s Galliano” Manish Arora is a prominent
member of the Paris Fashion Week, with many celebrity clients that are
regarded as the top of the music spectrum such as Lady Gaga, Katy
Perry, Rihanna and Nicki Minaj are all among his followers.
Manish Arora has been often described as the Indian version of John
Galliano (which we feel is a compliment as Galliano did change the
fashion industry). Arora has earned great recognition in the European
Fashion industry for his inventive and bold cuts. A note that suggests
that his designs are well acclaimed is that 70% of his clients are from
overseas.
Our note: The Asian Fashion market as of recent has
become a highly coveted sector, with the likes of Louis Vuitton Moet
Hennessy group and Hermes Boutiques trying to implement themselves in
the regional industry shows that Asia has great financial and creative
potential. Manish Arora may be the forefront for the Asian Fashion
Industry however he often spoke that it is difficult to enter the
overseas market but it does seem that he is doing something right
because he is ensuring that he has the cat-walk in Paris Fashion Week
year-in-year out.
We’ve often spoken of how fashion is not subjected to just the
Western world, it would be great to see an emergence of fashion
designers from other regions, there are some that have great vision,
creativity and innovation. We feel that this is the next step that
fashion should be taking to increase the exposure of such designers like
Manish Arora and such influences would propel the fashion industry to
its next phase.
