Whistling Woods International (WWI) School of Fashion celebrated a remarkable display of creativity and sustainability at its annual fashion graduation show, Aiyanna 2023. The event, which marked its 7th edition, captivated a packed audience of industry professionals, esteemed guests, and parents of the graduating batch.

ELLE: How does a platform like Aiyanna help budding talent?
Jewellyn Alvares (JA): Aiyanna is the launch pad for a huge pool of talent. This platform gives budding designers the ability to display their maiden collection in a professional showcase. But it is not only the show that's worth a mention. The students put together the most eclectic photoshoot and produce a lookbook that contains editorial content. All of these feature in their portfolio and are carefully curated and mentored so that they are industry-ready as soon as they graduate.
