Tarun Tahiliani's clothing epitomizes style, craftsmanship,
quality and refinement.
Tarun started his professional career in management,
with a degree from the Wharton School of Business.
In 1987 he conceived of starting a world-class fashion
store in Mumbai that would house up-market designer
clothing. Tarun and his wife Sailaja chose a handful
of talented young, undiscovered designers, which led
to the birth of Ensemble, and along with it a revolution
that would change the face of the fashion industry.
Tarun's own design career also had its inception in
the birth of Ensemble. Although he had the flair he
honed his technical knowledge in design by qualifying
for an associate degree from the Fashion Institute
of Technology in New York. Style, craftsmanship, quality
and refinement are the defining symbols of Tarun's
garments. His collections attempt to rejuvenate ideas
towards a renewal for contemporary Indian life. A
wide spectrum of silhouettes and styles complement
his trademark drapes and subtlety. Today, Tarun, the
master of drape, is one of the most sought after and
successful fashion designers in the country whose
clients cover a domestic and international arena.
Recently, Ensemble inaugurated a boutique in New Delhi.
Tarun Tahiliani's first ' store within a store' at
Ambawata, Mehrauli has an attached couture salon where
bridal and occasion wear will be designed and fitted
in consultation with clients. Menswear and home-furnishings
are also retailed from this outlet. Ever since the
tremendous success of his first solo show "The Rubaiyat"
in September ' 1994 at the Dorchester in London, he
has continued to present exclusive, well attended
and highly publicized shows in major cities all over
the world.
