Both Lakshmi and Rahul are scheduled to fly to New Zealand in September as part of a package tour where they will present their concept behind their creations to the designers belonging to all parts of the world.
Designs based on sun-sign Cancer and the torture created by fashion, try to catch the idea of fashion and to break free from the commercial aspect.
It caught the attention of officials of New Zealand Ministry of Tourism and Fashion Design Council of India (FDCI) who had come calling at NID to encourage students to participate in the competition.
