Sahachari Foundation’s annual exhibition ‘Design One’ is run by eleven women from Mumbai’s most influential business families, Minakshi Bajaj, Sheela Bhogilal, Mala Goenka, Nilima Kilachand, Madhu Ruia and Gauri Pohoomul among others. The Exhibition, now in its second year is at World Trade Centre, Mumbai on 8th, 9th September. At Design One, Brides and their families can look forward to shopping for a host of stuff, not just designer wear but home and lifestyle products, silverware, exotic flowers, gift items and various cuisines too. The participants this year include designers Nikasha Tawadey, Nandita Mahtani, Laila Motwane, Anu Mafatlal, Rakhee Grover Jain, Kanika Mehra, Pooja Hiremath and Madhu Shah.

The other co-founders of Sahachari Foundation (which means Women Walking Together) include Brinda Khatau, Pallavi Kanoria, Parul Choksey, Daksha Mehta and Laxmi Nair. The main aim of the Foundation is to promote India’s culture and tradition, and the profits from Design One, the flagship event go towards supporting several charities.

Thanks to the high profile organisers the show guarantees exhibitors, a visitor profile (read buyers) like no other shopping extravaganza. Says Mallika Singhania, Co-founder of www.indianhanger.com and a regular visitor to exclusive bridal and shopping shows: “In an age when exhibitions are so many in numbers, designers of exquisite wares are extremely selective about where they’d like to participate—‘Design One’ is a much sought-after platform thanks to the highly affluent audience it attracts”.
