Bindi 2025 Cultural Fashion Show brings desi fashion to Texas
A colourful tribute to Indian heritage took centre stage in Houston as the Bindi 2025 Cultural Fashion Show brought together Indian Americans in Texas for a runway event organised by World Bindi Day and held the ISKCON Temple in Texas.
The fashion show featured traditional attire from all Indian states, modelled by members of the diaspora, the Press Trust of India reported. The evening combined fashion with classical and folk dance performances, storytelling, and regional cuisine, designed to offer attendees a multi-sensory experience of Indian culture.
'Our goal was to share the journey of the bindi- from sacred dot to cultural emblem- while honouring the legacy of Indian womanhood,' said Kusum Sharma, president of World Bindi Day, The Week reported. 'This event also supports causes close to our hearts- girls' education, youth leadership, and community empowerment.'
World Bindi Day is a women-led nonprofit dedicated to promoting Indic traditions and community empowerment. Event coordinator Umang Mehta added, 'This was more than a fashion show- it was a heartfelt tribute to the India we carry within us.' Proceeds from the event will support World Bindi Day's educational and community upliftment programmes across the US.
