Ohaila Khan
Ohaila has always had a keen interest in art and design since her youth. She remembers writing an essay in the 1st grade on the topic 'My Dream Ambition' and very strangely mentioning the desire to grow up and become a fashion designer. It was quite an offbeat career choice for someone that young to even be aware of in those days, But it came naturally to her due to the exposure to her father's export house business. She was exposed to the 'behind-the-scenes' of creating embroideries and garments for the biggest couture houses in the world. Being surrounded by beads and crystals, a lot of art caught her eye. She would always be a part of extra-curricular activities related to every form of arts and crafts that existed. Her fascination grew further as she accompanied her parents for fashion weeks in Paris and Milan.

The beginning...
Ohaila Khan shares her story, "It actually began with and at Pernia's Pop Up Shop. I was working in my family business at the time designing embroidery development samples for all the big whos who couture houses of the world and I decided to start working on a small price-conscious capsule collection of festive wear, Pernias Pop-Up Shop loved it and our first consignment was sold out within less than a week and they were back for more so I started making small capsule collections as a part-time job while I worked with my fathers export house. It's only a couple years ago when I made this brand a full-time job as it was where my heart lied and it needed me as much as I needed it."
