For Parel resident Drishika Jain, fashion design is a passion-turned-business. “The world of fashion captivates me. It is such an intricate subject that I have spent decades exploring and understanding it, first through my studies, and later, through my small business,” says Jain, founder of a home-run business called Kaavya Signature Style. She is happy that her 12-year-old daughter Kaavya, a grade seven student at JBCN International School, Parel, Kaavya has interests in gymnastics, kathak, and piano. She has also learnt to solve the Rubik’s Cube, and is now teaching other kids about it. Moreover, she is developing an interest in fashion as well. The mother-daughter duo shares this interest, allowing Jain to experience the joy of experimenting with various drapes and styles by dressing up her not-so-tiny tot.
