Maharsh Shah, Co-Founder, Enakshi, shared, “Fashion in India has witnessed a swift revolution in the industry with the growing popularity of Indian-contemporary blends. Multiple brands and designers have tried creating their mark in this segment through their creative and quirky designs. However, most brands have failed to grasp/address the most important requirement of a modern Indian woman, namely, individuality. At Enakshi, we ensure that while we bring novelty to the table, we also guarantee individuality by upholding our promise of ‘One woman. One garment.
