Before Nivi and I began working together, she had already explored a range of designers and silhouettes during a shopping trip to India.
I studied every photo from that trip, analyzing which necklines, proportions, colours, and shapes suited her best. That gave us clarity: a sculptural evening gown for her reception.
We found our starting point in a Nicole + Felicia design, but the vision didnât stop there. The original gown was white, but we knew tea rose felt right. We refined the colour and drew details from multiple gowns to create something uniquely hers.
The timeline was tighter than the atelier would typically accept, and the order was initially declined. After continued advocacy on my end, they agreed to take it on.
Every detail was then finalized virtually through photographs, videos, and ongoing conversations before production began.
The final gown wasnât the result of one decision. It was the culmination of careful analysis, creative direction, collaboration, and persistence
