New Delhi : Hyundai India Couture Week will take place at the Taj Palace Hotel in New Delhi, India, between July 25 and August 2, 2023. The Fashion Design Council of India (FDCI) is pleased to announce its partnership with Reliance Brands for this event.
The collaboration will provide even more prestige to the event, which for the last 16 years has served as India’s preeminent showcase for bridal and couture designers. The Hyundai India Couture Week, an FDCI project, has become “the” forum for presenting the rising profile of numerous designer-promoted firms in India and has elevated Indian workmanship to the forefront of the country’s domestic luxury market. This concept will be accelerated and broadened by Reliance Brands (RBL), which has extensive experience in developing, nurturing, and working with international and Indian premium brands.

“This partnership re-affirms our commitment towards the growth of the designer fashion industry in India as we look to create global benchmarks in terms of showcase, appeal, and visibility,” stated Mr. Jaspreet Chandok, Group Vice President, Reliance Brands. Hyundai India Couture Week is a one-of-a-kind property, and we’re excited to further our connection with FDCI.
In its 16th edition, India’s greatest couturiers will present 17 creative showcases, unveiling their unique collections and honouring the opulence of workmanship through captivating visual storytelling.
