In a conversation with ANI, Dia expressed her personal connection to the floral theme, saying, "This garment is a celebration of flowers. One of the most precious lessons a flower teaches is that it never compares itself to another. They just face the sun and spread beauty and joy in the world."
The 'Rehnaa Hai Terre Dil Mein' star, no stranger to the runway, having won Miss Asia Pacific in 2000, shared insights into how she prepares for ramp shows.
She emphasized the importance of comfort, especially in the garments and footwear one wears.
Sharing a valuable tip, she said, "You should know where you have to walk and make sure that you're comfortable in what you're wearing, especially in the footwear, to avoid any mishaps."
She added with a smile, "If you do trip or fall which is the worst that can happen to you at the ramp.. Just get up, dust yourself off, and continue with a smile."*
Off the ramp, Dia Mirza is known for her advocacy for sustainable fashion, a theme she reiterated during the event.
She said, "I believe in sustainability with all my heart. It's important to be mindful of what kind of garments we wear, where the textiles come from, and how the people involved in making them are treated."
As the event continues to unfold, fashion enthusiasts are eagerly anticipating the grand finale by the renowned designer Rohit Bal, scheduled for October 13.
