Manish Malhotra is the name you would think about when it comes to giving some of the most iconic looks in Bollywood. His talent goes beyond Bollywood, and his couture, over the years, has been well praised. He has achieved another milestone in his career by making a grand debut at Paris Haute Couture Week with his collection 'Maa'.

What is Manish Malhotra's Collection 'Maa' About?

Manish Malhotra's 'Maa' is an ode to motherhood, while showcasing that unconditional love through Indian craftsmanship. The designer has called his mother his inspiration several times, as she supported him to take an unconventional path.
He shared on Instagram, "When I chose an unconventional path in the 80s, my mother never asked me to be certain. She simply believed in me. Sometimes, love is the greatest permission to dream."
