Krishna Mehta's tryst with designing began in February
1982. Accomplishing the fashion-designing masters
in 1987 from Sophia Polytechnic, Mumbai, Bachelor
of Commerce degree from Sydenham College of Commerce
& Economics, Mumbai in 1981 and an extensive training
in weaving at the Weavers Service Centre, Mumbai,
Krishna joined the family business of garment exports
in 1982. Working her way up from a Co-ordinator to
merchandiser to fabric incharge and then to designer
in a span of nine years.
In 1991 Krishna took the fledgling Indian fashion
industry by storm with her menswear. Her perfectly
cut and impeccable finished lines soon established
her as a respected name in men's fashion. The first
menswear designer soon came up with an Indo-west line
and fusion lines for women in 1994, which were also
indeed the first of their kind to be seen in the country.
Krishna Mehta opened her flagship store " Krishna
Mehta" in Mumbai in January 1996, specialising in
Indian, Indo- West and Western Couture garment lines
for men and women. This was followed by the opening
of a "Krishna Mehta'" franchisee store in Ahmedabad.
Krishna Mehta is a label synonymous with classic designs
of understated elegance. Relaxed yet bold, in keeping
with the pace of contemporary life. Today, Krishna
Mehta could easily be called the priestess of classicism
who has continued perfecting her designs and styles,
realising the acute awareness about Indian Fashion
on international levels. Be it her prêt or couture
lines, those who know her style can spot a " Krishna
Mehta" creation from miles away anywhere in the world.
