SABA – As a student, subjects like Math and Physics never excited me. I always had a passionate knack for creativity. I used to indulge in lots of creative activities and was fascinated by different artistic creations. This urged me to opt for fashion designing after school. It was just a beginning, after which there was no turning back. A new life had begun for me.

SABA – (laughing) I never even waited to finish my education. In my first year, I worked back stage for Asif Shah. Then I worked for some more shows including YUVANA, as a stylist and show coordinator. After this, I never stopped working even for a day. I was always doing something or the other. Soon, I found myself surrounded with many offers.

[ultimate_heading main_heading=”What does fashion mean to you?” alignment=”left” spacer=”line_only” spacer_position=”middle” line_style=”dotted” line_height=”2″ line_color=”#dd9933″ line_width=”200″ main_heading_font_family=”font_family:|font_call:” main_heading_style=”font-weight:700;” sub_heading_font_family=”font_family:|font_call:” sub_heading_font_size=”desktop:15px;” sub_heading_line_height=”desktop:25px;” spacer_margin=”margin-top:10px;margin-bottom:10px;” margin_design_tab_text=””]

SABA – Fashion is an expression of a person. It represents one’s visual information. I think all the fashion has already been discovered and created in the world. The only thing that matters now is styling and using different permutations and combinations of designs. This is possible because of the cyclical nature of fashion. All sorts of fashion, eventually come back.

SABA – During a show in 2014, my theme was rejected because they felt it was not an original even when it was. So I decided with all my heart that I will not let anybody hold me down for something like this. I researched day and night and as a result my theme- VINTAGE PRINTABLES reached the Apparel Magazine’s 2014 edition (beaming).

SABA – There was a time in Indore, when fashion industry was still in the nascent stage. But I would say, the scenario has changed a lot. This change is still going as we speak. Indore has showered much love and appreciation on me. I have a long list of people who have helped me grow at my initial stage.
