Indian designer Manish Arora launched his first solo exhibition in the US at Scad Fash in Atlanta, Georgia. The exhibition opened to the public on March 27 and chronicles his colorful journey in fashion with looks from his vibrant collections over the years.
“Scad Fash invites you to stroll through the colorful world of Manish Arora to experience the designer's three favorite emotions: 'happiness, joy and celebration', key components to making life beautiful,” the fashion gallery announced on Facebook. After a private screening on May 26, the 'Life is Beautiful' exhibition was launched and also features Arora's film 'Holi Holy' (2013), which explores Indian traditions around widowhood.
At the exhibition, Arora teamed up with Scad Fash creative director Rafael Gomes to curate a selection of the eponymous designer's most notable creations. These include Arora's 'Indian Scottish Kilt' from her spring/summer 2008 collection and her 'Incredible India' look from spring/summer 2006.
“This exhibition is of my work from the late 1990s until now,” Manish Arora told Vogue India. “We chose pieces that mattered in my design learning journey… I like making new things. I always think that when you do something that you don't know very well, [that] That's when it looks most original.”
