Sakshi Verma, the creative force behind the brand NariChic, is set to present her collection at All India Fashion Week 2026, organized by Mission Dreams. Based in Kolkata, West Bengal, Sakshi brings with her not just designs, but a deeply rooted legacy of Indian textiles and craftsmanship that shapes her unique fashion identity.
As the industry continues to evolve rapidly, Sakshi’s work stands out for its commitment to authenticity, blending traditional Indian fabrics with contemporary silhouettes to create pieces that are both meaningful and modern.
A Legacy Woven Through Generations
Sakshi’s journey into fashion is not accidentalit is built on decades of experience passed down through her family. Her father, who spent over 45 years as a fabric salesman in one of Kolkata’s most well-known textile markets, played a crucial role in shaping her understanding of quality, craftsmanship, and authenticity.
Growing up around fabrics and textile knowledge, Sakshi developed a natural connection to design. Even after her father’s retirement, his concern over the decline in authenticity in modern fabrics became a turning point. Together, they decided to start their venture, combining his deep industry knowledge with her creative vision.
Through KNV Fashion and its brand NariChic, Sakshi aims to preserve India’s original textiles, folk art, and cultural identity while presenting them in a way that connects with today’s audience.
Redefining Fusion Fashion with Purpose
Sakshi specializes in fusion wear, where traditional craftsmanship meets modern design. Her approach is not just about aesthetics but about storytelling. Each piece reflects a balance between heritage and innovation, bringing forward artisanal fabrics in a way that feels relevant on contemporary runways.
What sets her apart is her ability to transform traditional textiles into statement fashion without losing their original essence. Her designs are rooted in culture, yet styled for today’s fashion-conscious audience.
