London [UK], September 27: NIFD Global School of Design and London School of Trends (LST), in collaboration with the High Commission of India in London, unveiled a unique collection by emerging designers from NIFD Global at India Day during London Fashion Week. Showcasing the creativity of designers from NIFD Global's pan-India centers, the event presented a stunning collection titled "Roots to Runway".
The designers, hailing from NIFD Global centers across diverse regions such as Kolkata, Jaipur, Pune, Panvel, and Hyderabad, brought their unique regional perspectives to the runway.

By combining traditional elements with innovative cuts and patterns, the collection struck a perfect balance between history and modernity. This fusion of past and present demonstrated that India's design legacy is alive and evolving.
One of the standout aspects of the show was the emphasis on sustainability. The designers were committed to using eco-friendly materials, from organic dyes to upcycled fabrics.
