Exploring how conscious design, responsible production, and global awareness are shaping the future of fashion.
Dr R. Sri Ram, Founder and Managing Director of Bags of Ethics (part of the Supreme Creations), visited Mumbai in March 2026 during Lakmé Fashion Week, immersing himself in one of the most dynamic periods in the global fashion calendar. The city’s energy—fast-paced, entrepreneurial, and deeply creative—provided a fitting backdrop for conversations around sustainability and ethical production.
Despite wider travel disruptions affecting planned engagements, Dr Sri Ram’s visit remained highly productive, offering the opportunity to engage directly with designers, industry leaders, and changemakers shaping the future of fashion.
Sustainability at the Forefront
Lakmé Fashion Week, in partnership with the Fashion Design Council of India and Reliance Brands Limited, showcased a strong commitment to sustainability. Across collections and presentations, there was a clear focus on responsible sourcing, circular design, and the revival of traditional craftsmanship.
Designers such as Rahul Mishra, Amit Aggarwal, Kartik Kumra, and CRCLE Studio demonstrated how innovation can coexist with heritage, reinforcing the importance of conscious consumption and long-term value creation.
For Bags of Ethics, these themes closely align with its mission to promote reusable products, ethical supply chains, and transparent manufacturing practices.

Mumbai: A Source of Inspiration
Beyond the runway, Mumbai itself offered inspiration. From the architectural scale of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport to the refined retail environments in Fort and Kala Ghoda, the city reflects a balance between heritage and modernity.
These spaces reinforce the importance of design not only as an aesthetic pursuit but as a tool for storytelling and impact, values central to Bags of Ethics.
