Founded by Smita Shrinivas, a trailblazer who defied her family's engineering tradition to pursue a
creative path in fashion. After earning her Bachelor’s in Design from the prestigious National
Institute of Fashion Technology (NIFT) in Mumbai, Smita's exceptional talent was recognized with
multiple awards from the institution.
Determined to broaden her horizons, Smita moved to New York to complete her Associate’s
degree at the Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT). Her academic excellence earned her Summa
Cum Laude honors and a spot at the FIT NYC Gallery for her capstone project. Smita's tenure at
FIT included invaluable internships at New York Fashion Week (NYFW) and with several renowned
designers, cementing her expertise in the fashion industry.
Post-graduation, Smita worked at the esteemed Marchesa in New York, creating exquisite
garments for Cannes, the Golden Globe Awards, and other red-carpet events. Returning to India,
she contributed her skills to various men’s and women’s couture houses but soon realized her
ambition to create something uniquely her own.
Rejecting lucrative job offers from top Indian designers, Smita borrowed money from her family
and launched her eponymous label with a small but dedicated team of five. Her vision for Smita
Shrinivas is to see her designs grace prestigious red carpets worldwide, bringing her unique
sense of design to the global stage.
At Smita Shrinivas, we are committed to innovation, elegance, and functionality, ensuring each
piece is a testament to Smita's passion and meticulous craftsmanship. Join us on this exciting
journey as we redefine couture fashion.
