THE GRAND, COMFORTABLE PLAN

One of the first high-street accessories brands in India that caught the fancy of fashion enthusiasts over a decade ago, ALDO has secured its presence as a market leader since its foray in 2005. And for many, good reasons. Design and innovation are, of course, the most crucial criteria. But more importantly, the 51-year-old brand, originally from Canada, is founded on humane principles of ethics that echo the needs of the modern, evolved buyer.

In an exclusive conversation with Bazaar India, President ALDO Group International, Michel Fahmy shared the very foundations that drive the brand.
