Bibhu Mohapatra & The Concubine Who Inspired His Fall Collection

A strong woman has confidence and believes in herself - and not just on the surface. Definitely how you look is important but it comes from inside. I'm involved with a small number of charities, mostly women and children who have dealt with domestic abuse, and it's important to me, in whichever way we can help them find their own voice. (It happens by) giving them an occupation that will make them think independently. Forget living independently, thinking independently is the first step, and sometimes they're in a cycle and can't break out of it. But once you give them a tangent they go. It's not about money or clothes, it's about making them think differently.
