Shibani Akhtar, Tanya Maniktala, Kusha Kapila And More Bring Glamour to Vogue Forces of Fashion Gala in Mumbai

Mumbai shimmered with style last night as Vogue Forces of Fashion returned with its signature blend of elegance, influence, and innovation. Among the many head-turners on the red carpet were Shibani Akhtar, Tanya Maniktala, Kusha Kapila, Gabriella Demetriades, and Akansha Ranjan Kapoor—each showcasing personal style that blended bold statements with subtle sophistication.

 

Held as part of Vogue India’s flagship fashion initiative, the gala isn’t just another star-studded night—it’s a cultural conversation, bringing together the brightest minds and most iconic trendsetters in Indian fashion. It’s where fabric meets philosophy and couture meets conversation. And this year’s edition, themed around the interplay of fabric, form, and architecture, kicked off a five-day design showcase spotlighting the future of fashion through a distinctly Indian lens.

 

Shibani Akhtar brought edgy glam with sleek tailoring and metallic accents, while Tanya Maniktala embraced modern elegance with a soft-toned draped silhouette. Kusha Kapila, known for her playful online persona, showed up in a structured ensemble that was both chic and cheeky—a perfect nod to her dual identity as influencer and fashion muse. Gabriella Demetriades exuded cool confidence with understated luxe, and Akansha Ranjan Kapoor opted for contemporary minimalism, proving that sometimes, less is more.

 

The night celebrated not just what people wore, but how fashion continues to evolve as a storytelling medium—shaped by identity, heritage, and creative rebellion. As always, Forces of Fashion offered that rare front-row seat to what’s next in Indian style, and this year’s guest list made it clear: the future looks fearless.
