 A baby step is taken already. I am working on my clothing website named” Label Pawan”. After five years I want to see it as an established brand.

Hello, I am a Textile Designer cum Fashion Designer from Apeejay Institute of Design, New Delhi. I was working with Manan Designs. It’s a Delhi based company which manufactures and exports to its various clients like-New Zealand, Australia, Kenya etc. They deal only in Natural Fabrics. I use to meet all the creative requirements of clients.From sourcing the right fabric to final Stitching. There I gained good knowledge on natural fabrics, hand embroidery and taste of international clients.
