Lakshita Marks 24 Years with Power-Themed Collection
Lakshita, a name synonymous with empowering fashion for Indian women, is celebrating 24 years of its journey with a limited-edition anniversary collection titled 'The Power Within.' This drop features 24 designs, each embodying a different dimension of the modern Indian woman's identity.
Rooted in nearly a quarter-century of design evolution, the collection honors the lives Lakshita has dressed—from homemakers to entrepreneurs, from first steps to life's milestones. Co-Founder and MD Sachin Kharbanda shares that this collection reflects years of 'design thinking, cultural listening, and craft,' translating into inclusive clothing for women from all walks of life. 'Style must never be static,' he adds, framing the milestone as both a celebration and a call for constant reinvention.
The 24 pieces are organized around six core themes that represent Lakshita's renewed design philosophy:
Power to Move: Fluid, stretchable co-ords and flowy silhouettes designed for dynamic, all-day wear.
Power to Express: Bold, artistic cuts, asymmetric hems, and statement embellishments for individual flair.
Power of Comfort: Lounge-to-street wear in cotton, modal, and linen blends offering relaxed, stylish fits.
Power to Own: Clean lines and soft pastels that channel quiet confidence and minimalism.
Power to Rise: Ambition-led pieces with polished tailoring and rich, jewel-toned palettes.
Power to Choose: Versatile separates suited to all body types, encouraging wardrobe flexibility.
Set to launch later this month, the collection will be available across Lakshita's stores and online platforms. Beyond just fashion, it is a narrative of power, comfort, and individuality — inviting every woman to find herself in its folds.

India remains key strategic market for global brands: Myntra CEO Sinha
India continues to be a strategic market for both global and domestic brands, said Myntra CEO Nandita Sinha. She made the remarks after attending the NRF 25 retail event held in Singapore from 3 to 6 June. Following the e-commerce major's launch in Singapore on 19 May, Myntra Global has reported growing user engagement, a healthy average order value and a notable share of returning customers. Singapore launch 'With the launch of Myntra Global in Singapore, we're also laying the foundation for our global foray, with a long-term aspiration to serve the Indian diaspora beyond India,' Sinha said. The company in May said that it aims to assess consumer preferences, selection patterns and brand traction before planning wider expansion. Initial targets include reaching 12–15 per cent of the Indian consumer base in Singapore. The Walmart-owned company is currently targeting the 650,000 Indians living in Singapore. Sinha noted that the company's India-based platform had already recorded around 30,000 users from Singapore prior to the launch. 'We're tapping into opportunities around festivals, weddings and occasions with our brand portfolio, spanning Indian fashion and home décor,' Sinha had said in May. 'For now, our focus is on learning, getting product–market fit right and then expanding.' 'At less than 15 per cent, e-fashion in India is still significantly underpenetrated compared to global benchmarks, presenting a tremendous opportunity,' she said. Sinha added, 'The new-age insurgent brands are tailoring their value proposition,' while highlighting the Indian market's rising importance. Customer segment A key focus for Myntra is the Gen Z customer segment, which interacts with fashion differently and expects a customised shopping experience. 'The aspirational Indian shopper is trading up across beauty, accessories and occasion-wear, and Myntra, as one of India's leading e-lifestyle destinations, is well poised to cater to the aspirational and evolving customer needs,' Sinha said.
