If you’ve also been keen to be a part of the big, bold and fascinating world of the fashion industry and were looking for guidance and motivation to take it up as a profession, Black Taxi Commune has got your back. They are hosting the Ones Who Made It, a live panel discussion featuring strong, inspiring voices in the field of fashion, design, and entrepreneurship. The panellists for the discussion include seasoned voices from the fields of fashion and design, notably Vikram Phadnis, Mayank Anand, Shraddha Nigam, and Sougat Paul.

Parul Gupta, moderator-founder, Black Taxi Commune, elaborates about the idea behind the session, “In the spirit of building something real and meaningful, Black Taxi has launched the Black Taxi Commune — a space for growth, resilience, and mentorship in fashion. The goal of the commune is to create a platform where fashion designers can have honest, unfiltered conversations. A place where they can share their experiences, learn from each other, lean on each other and grow together. This platform also welcomes students from design schools who want to follow a similar path, offering them mentorship and internship opportunities.”

Every profession has ups and downs. The discussion will help young fashion professionals navigate their way through hurdles and climb the success ladder. Gupta says, “This session highlights stories of failure and rejection, as they are equally important, perhaps even more.” She adds, “We especially encourage design students who aspire to build their brands, or work with independent labels to attend. You’ll get a rare chance to meet one-on-one with brand founders, ask questions, and explore potential career opportunities.”
