“YFLO as pan India
business organization working towards
the goal of women empowerment confers
the young achievers awards to women who
have excelled in different spheres of life and have created impact through
their stupendous work in the lives of others. The organization believes in
recognizing successful women, who other than excelling in their respective fields
are icons of inspiration to society and encourage other women to brave the odds
and emerge victorious” said Ms Trupti Gupta, Chairperson, YFLO ,
“There was a time when
globalization was a big word, but soon
it gave way to global local—and followed
by not only nationalism but also regionalism. It is regionalization that will
set us apart and ahead because regional textiles can impart a social identity
that is globally unique, strong and unapologetic. Sabyasachi Couture works with
some of the most important and iconic textiles and craft communities in India
to give the consumer an individual voice. This show for Young FICCI Ladies
Organization will be a reflection of
that vision. “ said Designer Sabyasachi Mukherjee.
“Handwoven “kadwa” silk
saris from Benares, the sumptuous allure of kanchipuram silks, the finest
patolas from Patan, chikankari from Uttar Pradesh, khadi from Andhra Pradesh
and indigenous methods of dying, printing and various hand embroidery
celebrates the spirit of India. We believe that the finest textiles and
craftsmanship should exist in India as clothing and not just mere costumes. As
the country generally follows an aspiration curve that is called “the
trickle-down theory” in economics, it is important to celebrate exuberant textiles
and crafts in privileged corridors of society through weddings and other
cultural events. It helps us sustain specialization and the eventual generic
trickle down into the mass market.” He added.
