Rohit Bal, who is ready for DFW, said: “The reason that I'm showing here is because I find DFW extremely progressive and the production quality of the event is comparable to any international fashion week.”

He also added, “There is little room for any internal disputes since it is a collection of like-minded creative designers with the sole purpose of putting together a great event and move forward and concentrate on the business of fashion.”

Vineet Bahl, who is showing his chic and easy glamorous line this time, says, “Delhi Fashion Week is a very fair platform which believes in giving equal opportunity to established and young designers like me.”

International stylists along with Jan Malan and his team of show producers from South Africa are responsible for the show that will try to strengthen long term business relationships between buyer and designers and market it well through media to enable aspirant designers to come up with their best.
