December 9th, 2023, Kolkata– The stage was set, the spotlight glimmered, and the Royal
Bengal Room in Kolkata became the epicenter of an extraordinary convergence of art,

National Designer Business Club (NDBC) hosted the illustrious "INDIANA FASHION SHOW,"
a celebration that flawlessly blended cultural richness with cutting-edge creativity in association
with Kolkata Airhostess Academy.

This captivating affair witnessed the presence of luminaries from the world of fashion and
entertainment. The chief guest, Interior Architect, Mr. Ajit Jain, Chairperson of ABID, added his
esteemed presence, elevating the event’s significance. Renowned celebrity Ms. Richa Sharma
