For Aneeth Arora, becoming a fashion designer was nowhere on the radar when she was younger. She had little sartorial interest in her childhood and all she wanted was to move out of her hometown Udaipur in Rajasthan after passing out of high school.

For that, she took as many entrance tests as she could and while she cracked the Sir JJ College of Architecture exam in 2000, she chose to join the National Institute of Fashion Technology (NIFT) in Navi Mumbai.

“My mother did not want me to leave home and go far since my brother had already moved to Mumbai. But I convinced her and joined NIFT even though I did not have a definitive ambition back then,” says the 34-year-old.
