Masaba Gupta is set to represent India at one of the world's leading gatherings across fashion, luxury and retail. The entrepreneur behind successful brands like the House of Masaba and Lovechild will be the only Indian designer participating at the prestigious RLC Fashion Summit in Milan, marking a significant moment not only in her own journey but also for the growing global influence of Indian fashion and entrepreneurship.
Known for consistently pushing boundaries and building brands rooted in culture and individuality, her participation reflects the changing perception of Indian founders on the international stage. Her presence at the summit places India within conversations that are increasingly focused on emerging markets, evolving consumer behaviour and cultural influence. The moment also draws attention to a new generation of Indian brands shaping growth through authenticity, ambition and a clear point of view.
The RLC Fashion Summit will bring together some of the most influential figures from the global fashion and luxury industry. Gupta will share the stage with leaders including Silvio Campara, CEO of Golden Goose; Luca Lisandroni, CEO of Brunello Cucinelli; and John Hooks, Advisor and Board Member at Armani Group.
Speaking about the opportunity, Gupta said, "India is at a really exciting intersection right now, where fashion, culture, beauty and entrepreneurship are all evolving together in a very global way while still staying deeply rooted in identity. To be sharing this stage with some of the most influential voices across luxury, retail and business is an incredible honour. Conversations like these are important because they shape how emerging markets, creative founders and cultural storytelling are viewed on the world stage. I'm proud to represent not just my brands, but also a generation of Indian brands that are building with authenticity, ambition and a strong point of view."
