Mumbai Dec 17 (IANS) Young designer Masaba Gupta who has stood out for her quirky colourful and contemporary take says aspiring designers should concentrate on creating their own niche.
"As a designer it is important to understand to create your own space and own it. Don t go after another designer s forte you will lose. It s crowded " Masaba tweeted on Sunday.
Masaba had launched her eponymous label back in 2009. She came to be known for prints which took inspiration from lipstick or camera -- everyday things -- which she gave a fashionable twist to.
In an earlier interview to IANS Masaba had said designers who copy should not even get a place in fashion weeks.
"I think for the layman it s not plagiarism... for them it is a similar outfit. But people who are in fashion and people who understand it should stand up and voice it out."
