My personnel who primarily hail from West Bengal went back again for the duration of the very first wave. When we reopened, we had to cease output as it was not sustainable. The scenario was the very same for lots of designers across the place. So I introduced down products and solutions from designers in Delhi and Mumbai to Salt Studio and organised pop-up income for the 1st time. The products bought out very quickly, so I determined to curate additional layouts,” suggests the young designer.

Now they are more receptive. On-line shopping has also come to be popular, and we are tapping into that by means of our site,” she claims.
