Rahul Mishra blends Indian craftsmanship with global sensibility.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n

For designer Rahul Mishra, philosophy and art move hand in hand \u2013 a synergy that defines his design language. His creations seamlessly blend traditional Indian craftsmanship with a modern, global sensibility, each backed by a deeply emotional narrative. From The Pale Blue Dot, which was showcased earlier this year, to Becoming Love presented at both Paris Couture Week and Hyundai India Couture Week last month, the designer continues to push creative boundaries, leaving audiences spellbound.<\/p>\n

A hallmark of his work is the way he incorporates jewellery to heighten the impact of his couture. A striking example was his collaboration with Tanishq at Paris Couture Week, where the brand\u2019s Radiance in Rhythm collection became an integral part of Becoming Love. In an exclusive conversation with News18, Rahul Mishra<\/a> and Pelki Tshering, CMO of Tanishq, share their thoughts on fashion, jewellery, and the art of quiet luxury.<\/p>\n

Q: What does \u201cmodern heirloom” mean to you, and how can fashion and jewellery together redefine that?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Rahul Mishra:<\/strong> India has a remarkable history of jewellery \u2013 from careful selection to preserving the culture of jewellery making, gemstones, and craftsmanship. The entire world sources from India. Similarly, in fashion, the world also looks to India. In haute couture, I would say 95% of hand-embroidered garments are actually made here, whether it\u2019s Chanel, Dior, or any other house.<\/p>\n

The same applies to global jewellery \u2013 most coloured stones, natural diamonds, and other materials come from India. When you think of high fashion or high jewellery, India is the mother of creating luxury. I believe that creating luxury will always be one of the most significant things in the world, and India has all the ingredients to be a global leader and a thought leader.<\/p>\n

Indian craft is already showcased globally, but what makes us unique is our role as authors and creators \u2014 shaping what is yet to be created. That is something truly special.<\/p>\n

Pelki Tshering:<\/strong> Our muse is the modern Indian woman \u2013 someone who strikes a beautiful balance between tradition and constant reinvention. In our collaboration with Rahul, there was a clear creative synergy. Who else but Rahul could embody that balance so effortlessly? Like Rahul said, our work draws from India\u2019s rich heritage, but we reimagine it so the designs can be worn anywhere in the world. The craftsmanship is deeply Indian, but the silhouettes and styling make it universally appealing.<\/p>\n

Q: How do you think jewellery can elevate restraint \u2013 rather than excess \u2013 in fashion?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Pelki:<\/strong> At the end of the day, jewellery is not just an ornament \u2013 it\u2019s an emotion. And that emotion belongs to the modern Indian woman in all her forms. Sometimes she\u2019s vibrant and full of colour; other times she prefers the subtlety of quiet luxury. We design to give her choices for every mood, because jewellery is emotional. It allows her to express herself in the moment, in a way that feels authentic to who she is right then.<\/p>\n

Q: Who is Rahul Mishra\u2019s muse?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Rahul Mishra:<\/strong> Every day, I\u2019m surprised by the diversity of people who connect with our work \u2013 sometimes from parts of the world where they\u2019ve never even seen the garment in person. It reminds me of when A.R. Rahman\u2019s Jai Ho became a global hit. Many listeners didn\u2019t understand the language, yet they loved it. That\u2019s the power of love and beauty \u2013 when something is crafted with care and sincerity, it resonates universally.<\/p>\n

For me, the muse is not defined by age: she is a modern woman who loves to express herself. When she sees something that connects with her, she wants it, no matter where she is. She values authenticity, ethical sourcing, and the human touch of something handmade with a story behind it. That\u2019s where we find our strongest connection, and that\u2019s what our brand stands for.<\/p>\n
