Sashi Vangapalli — Cannes Film Festival 2017 & The Launch of Her Upcoming Flagship Store

“Fashion is not about what you wear but it’s about how you feel at that moment.”

Ain’t it all about your calling? The time when you know what you want to do and how you want to go about it. Similar is the story of Sashi Vangapalli who quit her corporate job at an MNC to pursue her dream of hitting it big in the world of fashion.

At a recent press meet held at Radisson Blu, Banjara Hills, Sashi Vangapalli accompanied by her dear friend Sushmita Sen, talked about her experiences at The Cannes Film Festival 2017 and announced the launch of her upcoming flagship store in Hyderabad. Expressing her joy of being the first fashion designer from Hyderabad to showcase her collection ‘Reverie’ at the film festival, she shared with all her moments of ecstasy at one of the most star-studded festivals of the world where she got the chance to walk the red carpet with the well-known faces of the film fraternity.

Giving insights into the launch of her new store in Hyderabad, she walked everyone present through her plans and aspirations to take “Sashi Vangapalli — The Label” to greater heights. Spread across 6000 sq ft at Road No .2 Banjara Hills, Hyderabad, her new store would showcase a wide range of clothing from casual wear, to indo-western, to an exquisite range of traditional couture.

Sashi also recounted her journey when she started her label “Mugdha Art Studio” in the year 2012, and how in a very short period of time, she was able to garner admiration and commendations for her beautiful designs created with a fusion of western silhouettes and Indian embellishments. Known for her wedding couture, Sashi has crafted exclusive pieces with intricate designs under “Sashi Vangapalli — The Label” — a label that primarily focuses on creating designer clothing for the new age Indian woman.

Taking inspiration from people, places and nature, she has also showcased her collection “Bidariya” at the Lakme Fashion Week Summer Resort 2017. One of the most striking outfits at Lakme was donned by Sushmita Sen, who was her show stopper for the event. Besides that, she has also designed beautiful outfits for celebrities like Sushmita Sen, Tapsee Pannu, Kajal Aggarwal, Neha Dhupia, Laxmi Rai and many more.
