On 17th July 2026, Aza Santacruz welcomed guests for an exclusive Meet the Designer event with celebrated designer Sajeda A Lehery. The intimate gathering brought customers closer to the designer through engaging conversations, festive inspiration, and an exclusive first look at her latest collection.
More than a collection preview, the evening offered a deeper understanding of the inspiration, craftsmanship, and thoughtful details behind each creation, along with styling insights for the upcoming festive season.
From meaningful interactions with the designer to an immersive showcase of her newest designs, here's what made the evening truly memorable.
An Evening Celebrating Design, Craftsmanship and Festive Fashion
The evening unfolded at Aza Santacruz, one of Mumbai's most loved destinations for luxury ethnic wear. From the moment guests arrived, the space felt welcoming and full of quiet excitement.
Sajeda A Lehery greeted attendees personally, creating a genuine sense of connection. Rather than a formal presentation, the event felt like a gathering among friends who share a love for beautiful design. Guests moved through the collection, asked questions, and enjoyed unhurried moments with the designer.
This intimate setting is exactly what Aza aims to create. The brand has long believed that fashion becomes more meaningful when customers can engage directly with the people who create it. This designer event in Mumbai reflected that belief perfectly.
Discovering the Story Behind the Collection
Every great collection begins with a story, and Sajeda A Lehery reflected on the inspiration and craftsmanship behind her collection. She spoke about the inspiration that guided her latest festive collection and the emotions she hoped each design would carry.
Guests learned how much thought goes into a single garment. From the choice of silhouettes to the detailing of embroidery, every decision reflects intention and care. The designer discussed how fabrics are selected to feel as lovely as they look, and how the color palette was chosen to suit the season's celebratory spirit.
What made these insights so valuable was hearing them firsthand. Understanding why a certain drape was chosen, or how a particular embellishment came to life, adds a deeper appreciation for the finished piece.
Sajeda A Lehery also offered styling insights during the interaction. She shared thoughtful ideas on how to wear each look for different occasions, helping guests imagine these pieces in their own festive wardrobes.
A Curated Preview for the Festive Season
Timing made this preview especially exciting. The collection has been designed with the upcoming festive season in mind, offering pieces that feel both current and lasting.
Guests could easily picture wearing these designs across a range of celebrations. Consider a few occasions where this collection truly shines:
- Raksha Bandhan gatherings with family and loved ones
- Hariyali Teej that call for graceful, refined looks
- Ganesh Chaturthi where elegance meets a touch of glamour
- Wedding celebrations and warm family get-togethers
The collection balances contemporary appeal with timeless charm. That versatility is a real strength, allowing one wardrobe to move gracefully from a daytime ceremony to an evening celebration.
For festive and wedding wear buyers, this preview offered plenty of inspiration. Whether you prefer understated sophistication or something more striking, the range gives you thoughtful choices for every festive moment ahead.
