Art is believed to be open to interpretation. What an artwork conveys is never a constant for its varied interpreters. What stays constant is art, and its timeless nature triumphs over the onslaught of time. Art that challenges convention immortalizes itself to become a topic of discussion for decades to come. Amit Aggarwal enforces these beliefs to create a distinct style that establishes him as a disruptor in a world full of tried & tested formulas.

Heading Morphe in 2008 with Creative Impex, he then went on to create his eponymous label ‘Amit Aggarwal’ in 2012. Fetching critical acclaim from all over and establishing himself as trailblazing young Indian designer.

The label puts together ethnic roots with a futuristic appeal, giving birth to apparels that are a healthy confluence of these elements. The end-product takes the shape of garments that are contemporary and ageless.
Taking bridalwear to a niche of its own, with industrial design and experimentation at the core, Amit Aggarwal is pushing the envelope. Evolution becoming a signature of his brand, the designer has always perfected on his previous steps while working towards exploring the next .
