Sabyasachi Mukherjee just launched ‘The Udaipur Collection’
and it looks absolutely stunning

<ul><li>On Business Insider’s Global Trends Festival, Fashion Designer <keyword id="8264" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Sabyasachi">Sabyasachi</keyword> spoke about the future of fashion, how brands can help Indians feel proud of their culture, and what luxury means in India. </li><li>He also shared why consumers continue to buy expensive clothes from a luxury brand in a price-sensitive market like India. </li></ul>Over the years, Sabyasachi has built a brand that is truly Indian at heart and global at scale. Women who do dream of getting married often aspire to be a ‘Sabyasachi bride,’ a term coined by this legendary designer’s fans. Sabya, as he is popularly known, bootstrapped his business with a small capital of Rs 12,000, which was borrowed from his sister and today, his company has an annual turnover of $11 million. His journey is a testament to the fact that successful businesses are built on the pillars of perseverance and perspective. He was quick to realise that money isn't the only important thing when it comes to building a successful brand. Sabya shared, “Gone are the days when you could create a luxury brand just by the virtue of money. If that would have been the case, I would not have been a successful businessman at all because I started my own business with a capital of Rs 12,000. What I realised very early on was that to build a successful luxurious brand, you need to have a little bit of a cultural stand and a unique voice. At the end of the day, people need to look up to you.” Sabya climbed his way to the top on his own. He fought with his father, who wanted to see him become an engineer, to join National Institute of Fashion Technology (NIFT). His father also denied to fund his studies, so he sold his books to buy an application form for NIFT and got in. It was his determination and passion for fashion and craftsmanship that pushed him to do better and pull all-nighters. It was also this outsider perspective that helped Sabya envision a brand that offered both luxury and dignity. He said, “At one point in Kolkata, I saw a lot of luxury, exuberance and lavishness, and I also saw poverty and restraint. But what they both had in common was dignity. One of the reasons why I have been able to build a luxury brand is because I am detached. I look at luxury from an outsider perspective. For me, luxury is everything to do with refinement, restraint, dignity and value. So, to build a brand that is successful, it is important to have perspective.” Sabya turned the tide in his favour and built a niche, luxurious brand in a hyper-price-sensitive market. But what does luxury really mean to Sabya? “Luxury cannot be created from the point of subjugation. It needs to be created from a point of cultural relevance. In fashion, the ability to express yourself and to stand for who you are, is the definition of luxury,” answered Sabya. Bringing pride back for Indian culture Indian fashion practices, which have traditionally been influenced by cultural habits, have witnessed a gradual transition and have begun to align themselves to global trends. With this, Indians have adapted both, the colonial language and the fashion sense. Traditional wear is often remembered for festivals and celebratory occasions. So, with brand Sabyasachi, Sabya’s aim was also to instil national pride in our culture and its roots. Explaining why luxury is a reflection of one’s cultural identity, he said, “When I started my business in India, I realised that a lot of Indians were not proud of their cultural heritage. We had been colonised for a very long time and there was a colonial hangover that was expressed in Indian clothes. So, luxury is about self expression, comfort and about coming home to who you really are. In fashion, luxury is about your cultural identity, which is best expressed in India through exquisite craftsmanship.” Sabya, who is also surprisingly slightly colour-blind, is known for his perfection. He is seen as a businessman whose focus is on customers. Everytime he works on a collection, he trusts his intuition. Before the final draft reaches the edit table, he sits with an editing scissor and asks himself, “Why is it that the customer will buy this product?” The final draft is sent to the edit table once he feels confident about his design and has trust in its uniqueness. “I have always been guided by the two principles that the Indian customers are looking for: a sense of longevity and investment in products which can be very transient. With COVID, this sense has amplified because people want to buy things that are luxurious but they want the option to use it everyday,” said Sabya. Sabya also keeps the environment in mind while working on his products and wants to put a pause on fast-fashion trends. “At Sabyasachi, we do the exact opposite of fast fashion. We do the same kind of clothes over and over again because I want people to buy things that are timeless and give them a certain sense of identity. Similarly, when I do ready-to-wear, I would actually do classic products that people can use again and again. You see the harms of fast fashion because everything goes into landfills. Today you have to be conscious about how your business is creating carbon footprints and I would never do any kind of business that could harm the planet. I’d like to create a product that people have a relationship with. I would not want to create a product that they would discard seasonally, that’s not in my DNA.” However, Sabyasachi is an expensive brand that not everyone can afford. Sabya was once asked by Bollywood Actor Boman Irani in a television show if his ‘brand has customers or just fans’. But Sabya believes that its quality and value supersedes its expense. He said, “Why is it that the customer comes back to you again and again? It is because expense and value are two different parameters. As a customer, when I buy something I don’t look at the price, I look at the value the product offers. I want my customers to feel the same way. I want to offer them the best thing, irrespective of the price and I don’t want them to feel cheated that they have paid more than the value being offered.” If Indian consumers do want value products, why aren’t there many brands in the luxury landscape? Explaining the reason behind this gap, Sabya said, “The reason why India doesn’t have too many luxury brands is because everybody gets too corporatised. When you are working as a corporate, you are just doing a job. When you own a business, it is your little child and you want it to grow and do better everyday. For those who want to build a luxury brand, everyday is a battle -- not with anyone else but yourself -- you lead through inspired leadership and you just want to strive to make things better. What is perfect for everyone else might be imperfect for you and you have to be open-minded and need that humility to make something wonderful, better." Brands of the future Post COVID, Sabya thinks that the world needs to celebrate exuberance a lot more because our time in this world is finite. So, as customers become more cautious about where they put their money, brands need to offer an authentic experience and beautiful story-telling. And while they are at it, brands that help community as well, will become the brands of the future.

Here's Sabyasachi's journey of starting a brand with Rs 12,000 to becoming every Indian bride's dream

New Delhi, Jan 27 (IANSlife) One of the most influential labels, if not the reigning brand in Indian fashion, <keyword id="8264" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Sabyasachi">Sabyasachi</keyword>, enters into a strategic partnership with <keyword id="2834772" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Aditya-Birla-Fashion">Aditya Birla Fashion</keyword> and Retail Limited (ABFRL) by which <keyword id="967" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Aditya">Aditya</keyword> <keyword id="39439" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="birla">Birla</keyword> Fashion has acquired 51 percent stake in the brand for an undisclosed amount.

I am honoured and excited to have found that partner in Mr. Kumar Mangalam Birla and ABFRL. Aligned in our vision, and committed to excellence, we will work together to grow a truly global luxury brand out of India." Sabysachi Mukhrjee has always been ahead of the curve, and from the very beginning has strived to create a brand which in addition to the creative side of fashion, focused on the business of fashion. Sabyasachi has emerged as one of the most influential cultural voices in the country  shaping modern fashion and lifestyle while celebrating artisanal craftsmanship and traditional techniques in each and every product. The brand straddles categories such as apparel, accessories and jewelry and has a strong franchise in India, US, UK and the Middle East. Today, with solid footing in the domestic retail landscape, several major global collaborations, and international flagships opening soon, Sabyasachi continues steadfastly on its path to becoming the first voice of global luxury out of India.

Over the next few years, ABFRL intends to craft a portfolio that addresses the entire gamut of ethnic wear segments: value, premium and luxury." The proposed acquisition is subject to necessary statutory approvals and signing of definitive agreements. One can only wait and watch this unique story of Indian excellence unfold in the months to come.

The latest brand to fall victim to online bullying is Fashion designer <keyword id="7202" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="sabyasachi-mukherjee" source="Orion">Sabyasachi Mukherjee</keyword>'s label. He withdrew his latest campaign for his mangalsutra collection on Sunday after Madhya Pradesh’s Home Minister Narottam Mishra issued a "24-hour ultimatum" and threatened to send the "police force." "I have warned earlier as well. I am personally warning designer Sabyasachi Mukherjee and giving him a 24-hour ultimatum. If this objectionable and obscene advertisement is not withdrawn within 24 hours, then a case will be registered against him and legal action will be taken. The police force will be sent for the action," said Mishra in a video message that he posted on Twitter. After this warning, Sabyasachi took to Instagram and stated that he was "deeply saddened" that the advertisement campaign "offended" a section of the society and withdrew the campaign. The mangalsutra campaign by Sabyasachi's brand featured intimate portraits of same-sex and heterosexual couples sporting ‘Royal Bengal Mangalsutra’ of Intimate Fine Jewellery line. Soon, the internet flooded with #boycottsabysachi comments and trolls started calling the campaign ‘anti-Hindu’ and ‘offensive.’ Sabyasachi isn’t the only one who has withdrawn his ad after receiving threats from trolls and politicians.

Fashion has come a long way in India. It doesn’t imitate the international couture anymore like the mid 90s. It has build up a signature of its own in the global market, which is why we see <keyword id="8264" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Sabyasachi">Sabyasachi</keyword> and <keyword id="33" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Manish-Malhotra">Manish Malhotra</keyword> becoming the favourite couturier for <keyword id="2370" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="hollywood">Hollywood</keyword> celebrities. Fashion was always very artsy. So a designer would require a pencil and paper to draw his imagination and rely solely of pen and paper research. But no more, thanks to the cloud, things have become convenient.

Talking to media, Shane said, “Bollywood has shaped fashion for decades but now fashion shapes Bollywood.” What the designer duo has done is synthesis, a kind of fusion of different culture and old and new ways of doing things. “This is just the beginning. We want Watson to help us augment the whole design process. It doesn’t feel like technology. Rather it’s like communicating with higher intelligence that gives you the answer you want fast.” How AI helped the designers Watson helped Falguni and Shane to get hands on with couture trend of last 10 years. Be it the fabric, pattern, colour palate or motifs, AI technology has empowered them with research materials in fraction of seconds.

<ul><li>Controversies have always been a part of the advertising industry and the year 2021 was no different.</li><li>The year was full of ups and downs and a lot of brands landed in trouble for hurting religious sentiments through their campaigns.</li><li>We look at the year gone by and some brand controversies that erupted in India.</li></ul>2021 was bitter-sweet for the Indian advertising industry. This year gave us beautiful campaigns such as Cadbury’s remake of the famous stadium ad with the wonderful jingle Kuch Khaas hai, CRED’s Indiranagar Ka Gunda that still continues to appear in memes on the internet, Bhima’s Pure as Love ad that challenged the status quo, to mention a few. However, it was also a year full of controversies. Many brands landed themselves in trouble and numerous campaigns had to be pulled off. It is not too difficult today for a small tweet to snowball into a boycott trend, something that is every marketers’ and agency’s nightmare. At the same time, when brands have a presence on social media, they start having an opinion or a voice. If brands err on the side of caution, they are simply selling products to consumers and not engaging with them on a personal level. There will always be users who support the brand for standing up and fighting for causes they believe in but there will also be those who would oppose them at the slightest disagreement. GenZ is also becoming increasingly aware of how advertising works and is able to separate grey from black. They view brands as a form of self-expression and to connect with them, brands are also expected to go beyond just selling their products. They are known to connect with brands that they feel are socially and environmentally conscious. So, while many experts advise brands to steer clear of religious topics or make any political statements, there’s also pressure on brands and companies to take firm stands on issues that matter to these young consumers. As brands try to find the balance between making the right statement and offending a majority in the coming year, here are a few brands who found themselves in troubled waters this year: Manyavar Bridal wear brand Mohey had released a commercial that aimed to offer a fresh perspective to the Hindu wedding ritual 'Kanyadaan.' With its campaign featuring Alia Bhatt, Mohey promoted women empowerment and gave a more gender-sensitive touch to the age-old tradition of ‘Kanyandaan’ in Hindu weddings and insisted on bringing in ‘Kanyamaan’ instead. “Through the film, Mohey’s brand ambassador Alia Bhatt questions the conventional beliefs that require a daughter to conform to being ‘given away’ at her wedding. She makes a choice on her wedding day to rethink rituals, stating what Kanyadaan means in modern times, making it more equal and progressive for her present and future generations,” explained its press release. However, this campaign did not sit well with Twitter users. It flared up a controversy on social media and the hashtag #BoycottManyavar started trending on Twitter. The trolls slammed the ad for mocking Hindu traditions. <div type="Youtube" id="PmCSjllj7KU" title="Tradition wahi, soch nayi - #KanyaMaan" thumbUrl="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/PmCSjllj7KU/mqdefault.jpg"></div> Cadbury beef row Mondelez India had found itself in a soup too after a few screenshots surfaced on Twitter suggesting that its Cadbury Dairy Milk may contain gelatine derived from beef. Trolls were quick to call for a boycott on all Mondelez products but some users even pointed out that the screenshot being shared is that of Cadbury Australia’s website. <div type="twitter" handle="DairyMilkIn" handlename="Cadbury Dairy Milk" image="http://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/1327255370444668928/1NjkNhJE_normal.jpg" favoritecount="963" retweetcount="241" status="https://t.co/798qgPozsF" createdat="1626616484000" id="1416758336909840387"></div> The chocolate and snacks giant later clarified that its products in India are all vegetarian. It said that the screenshots circulated were of the company’s products sold overseas. FabIndia Clothing brand FabIndia was criticised for its collection named 'Jashn-e-Riwaaz.' Twitterati alleged that the campaign purposely tried to hurt religious sentiments by associating the name ‘Jashn-e-Riwaaz’ with Diwali, a Hindu festival. They even had a problem with women not wearing their badges of being married such as bindis, bangles and sindoor. Tejasvi Surya, MP and National President of the BJP Yuva Morcha had tweeted, “Deepavali is not Jash-e-Riwaaz. This deliberate attempt of abrahamisation of Hindu festivals, depicting models without traditional Hindu attires, must be called out. Brands like Fabindia must face economic costs for such deliberate misadventures.” Soon after that tweet, FabIndia deleted its post across social media and renamed its collection to ‘Jilmil-si-Diwali.’ Sabyasachi The designer brand was trolled heavily for allegedly hurting religious sentiments by promoting their ‘Royal Bengal Mangalsutra,’ which is a part of their Intimate Fine Jewellery line. The ace designer behind it, <keyword id="7202" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="sabyasachi-mukherjee" source="Orion">Sabyasachi Mukherjee</keyword>, decided to withdraw the campaign after it triggered an avalanche of online trolling for hurting religious sentiments. He retracted his campaign after Madhya Pradesh’s Home Minister Narottam Mishra issued a "24-hour ultimatum" and threatened to send the "police force." <div type="image" title="Sabya and mangalsutra ads" msid="88322071" hostid="261"></div> Dabur’s Fem In the same week, Dabur’s Fem Cream Bleach advertisement stirred a boycott trend for showing a same-sex couple celebrating the Hindu festival of Karva Chauth. <div type="Youtube" id="-yu4_BIPkXU" title="Fem Ad on Karwa Chauth | Dabur Fem Controversial Ad | Viral Video" thumbUrl="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/-yu4_BIPkXU/mqdefault.jpg"></div> CEAT CEAT Tyres was criticised for an ad featuring Aamir Khan in which the actor was seen advising people not to burst crackers on Diwali. <div type="Youtube" id="wm4kOghHQ24" title="Switch to CEAT SecuraDrive | Aamir Khan- Cricket" thumbUrl="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/wm4kOghHQ24/mqdefault.jpg"></div> Zomato Zomato landed in a controversy in October after a customer from Tamil Nadu alleged he was denied a refund for a missing item in his order as he didn't know the ‘national language’ Hindi. Soon, a massive backlash followed on Twitter with many slamming the food delivery app for imposing Hindi on its customers. This also led to hashtags "Reject_Zomato" and "ZomatoSpeakTamil" trending on top. Fortune oil When Sourav Ganguly, BCCI President and Former India Cricket Captain, suffered a mild heart attack in January, netizens happened to re-discover his old ad endorsing Fortune's Cooking Oil. It then triggered a slew of tweets and jokes with people questioning the effectiveness of the oil and also wondering how the brand will tackle this crisis. <div type="twitter" handle="arifaajakia" handlename="Arif Aajakia" image="http://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/1463855466463862798/ZR5EoEHM_normal.jpg" favoritecount="161" retweetcount="13" status="Dada, get well soon.

New Delhi, Jan 30 () Swedish fashion retailer Hennes &amp; Mauritz (H&amp;M) posted a 42.54 per cent rise in sales in India to 2,007 million Swedish krona (around Rs 1,486 crore) for the fiscal ended November 2019.
 The company had posted sales of 1,408 million Swedish krona (around Rs 1,043 crore) in 2018, the H&amp;M group said in its full-year report.
 H&amp;M, which follows the December-November financial year, also added eight more stores during the period in India, totalling to a network of 47 stores.
 Besides, H&amp;M also plans to roll out a customer loyalty programme in India.
 "H&amp;M upgraded the customer loyalty programme and now has more than 65 million members in 19 markets and will continue to be rolled out to additional markets in 2020, including India and South Korea," the company said in a post-earning statement.
 In 2019, H&amp;M launched a range of products on leading e-commerce platform Myntra, besides having presence in the online segment through its own channel.
 The H&amp;M group's global net sales increased 11 per cent to SEK 232,755 million in the 2019 financial year and the gross profit increased to SEK 122,453 million. SEK is an abbreviation for Swedish krona.
 "Sales growth was good in many markets in the fourth quarter. In India, sales increased 33 per cent in local currency, in Poland by 21 per cent, in Mexico by 18 per cent and in Russia by 12 per cent. In Sweden, sales increased by 7 per cent, while sales in the US and the UK increased by 6 and 3 per cent, respectively, said H&amp;M Chief Executive Officer Karl-Johan Persson said.
 Australia is scheduled to become a new H&amp;M online market in the second half of 2020, while in South Korea, it will launch the brand on the e-commerce platform SSG.COM.
 The group is also increasingly integrating online and physical stores for optimisation of the store portfolio.
 "Around 200 new stores are planned to open in 2020, mainly in growth markets, while at the same time, consolidation will continue with around 175 planned store closures, mainly in established markets. The net addition of new stores for full-year 2020 is expected to be around 25," the statement said.
 H&amp;M India Country Manager Janne Einola said, "We are delighted with the India results. Within 5 years in the country, Rs 1,500 crore sales show that the customers are happy with H&amp;M's business idea."
 He added that the company looks forward to the Indian design collaboration with Sabyasachi tie-up coming soon. KRH HRS
