Jaspreet Chandok Vice President and Head of Fashion IMG Reliance commented, "It is my pleasure to announce the launch of a democratic industry voice in fashion along with several like-minded partners. We can't wait to begin this new journey that will communicate all that's happening in the world of fashion and design from India and across the world."
Shefalee Vasudev said, Editor of The Voice of Fashion, "The editorial viewpoints will be gender equal, inclusive and sensitive with an unbiased view of people and the world and thus as its microcosm the fashion and design industry. The Voice of Fashion aims to be a one stop platform for a representative overview of fashion-creation, curation and consumption and hopes to track and lead fashion conversations in India."
The primary homepage buckets comprise Centre stage (that reflect strong stories that comment on the state of fashion), Watch (the videos section which can be viewed on Facebook), Fabric of India (which captures the craft and handloom from across the country), Intersections (this stretches the arc of fashion to its intersections with cinema, culture, politics, society, literature, art), Sustainability, Real Shop (an e-commerce guide with no plugs) and Smart Talks that brings fashion talent closer to design students.
