The Journey Really Begins for Fashion Designer, Bibhu Mohapatra
(PRWEB) January 23, 2008 -- Bibhu Mohapatra, of the luxury brand of the same name, is now based in New York.
However, growing up in the Indian state of Orissa, Bibhu always had a strong interest in fashion.
Inspired by the sumptuous Indian fabrics, sarees, arts and crafts, he started designing clothes at an early age for his sisters. After His bachelor's degree in Economics, his journey to the United States started with a master's degree in economics at Utah State University. Then his passion for designing clothes drove him to attend the Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT) in New York. He graduated with flying colors and was was awarded the prestigious Anthony Muto Critic Award.
After earning his master's degree in fashion design, Bibhu took the assistant designer's position at Halston. During his year and half tenure at Halson, Bibhu proved his talent for luxury women's wear and soon the industry noticed.
When Mr. Mendel of the fashion house J Mendel, was seeking to repackage his label into a broader more youthful brand, he went looking for fresh talent to help him realize his vision. He approached Bibhu Mohapatra. Bibhu joined the company at the end of 1998 as assistant designer and quickly became the Design Director.
During 8 years as the head of design at J. Mendel, Bibhu helped to transform the former fur house, into the most sought after exclusive New York based luxury labels.
Bibhu resigned from his position in September of 2007 in order to focus full time on his dream of establishing a label under his name.
Bibhu tells us hopes to present a small refined luxury ready to wear collection for Spring 2009 in New York, during fashion week in September 2008.
Because of what he did at Mendel, we know it will be a smash hit!
