A customer is spoilt for choice once they get on Instagram. It’s a kind of vibrant chaos which is equally fascinating. While the wedding space has remained as is, affordability and sustainability have gained a lot of importance and will continue to have an influence on fashion in the next five years.” FUTURE PLANS Sreejith Jeevan’s future plans revolve around artisanal progress. “Our attempts at working with groups of artisans have shown a lot of progress. My dream would be to work with as many people as possible. We want to create that space. I'm looking forward to doing a lot more of what we're doing now but with a lot more understanding in terms of the customer. We also want to expand but we'd love to still stay true to our beliefs and roots.” 46 I APPAREL I August 2020
