How the Creator of ‘Anaam’ is Paving the Way for a New Era of Fashion

Fashion is not just about clothing, it is an expression of one’s personality, identity and beliefs. With the ever-evolving fashion industry, designers are breaking barriers and challenging conventional norms. One such designer is Sumiran Kabir Sharma, the creator of ‘Anaam’, who is paving the way for a new era of fashion with his unique perspective on gender fluidity.

Recently, the JD Institute of Fashion Technology conducted an industry session with Mr. Sharma to discuss the topic of “Gender Fluid Fashion”. The session provided valuable insights into the world of gender fluid fashion, starting with an introduction to the concept of gender fluidity and the origin of the term androgyny. Sumiran shared his passion and expertise in this area, explaining the opportunities and challenges involved in promoting this idea in society, both nationally and internationally.

Sumiran also discussed how top brands and designers are embracing gender fluidity in their collections and where there is room for young designers to make their mark. This was an excellent opportunity for the students to learn about the importance of breaking barriers in fashion and exploring new avenues.

During the session, Mr. Sumiran treated the students to a presentation of some of his most iconic garments from previous collections, complete with demonstrations and insights into his creative process. One of Sumiran’s strengths is his expertise in technical pattern making, which he attributes to his engineering background prior to pursuing a career in fashion. This presentation allowed the students to see first-hand the passion and skill that goes into creating each garment, and to understand the importance of technical precision in the world of fashion.

The industry session with Sumiran Kabir Sharma was a great success, and the JD Institute of Fashion Technology is grateful for the opportunity to host such a talented and innovative designer. The session opened up new avenues of thought for the students and inspired them to challenge traditional norms in fashion. Sumiran’s passion and expertise in the field of gender fluid fashion has given the students a glimpse into the world of fashion beyond the binary and has encouraged them to explore new and innovative approaches to fashion design.

In conclusion, breaking barriers in fashion is essential, and designers like Sumiran Kabir Sharma are leading the way. The fashion industry must embrace diversity and inclusivity to create a world that is open to all, regardless of gender or sexuality. As fashion evolves, it is up to designers, educators and fashion enthusiasts to continue to challenge traditional norms and promote inclusivity in fashion.
