Some Lesser Known Facts About Anita Dongre
Anita Dongre was born into a traditional Hindu family in Mumbai.
Her family was based in Jaipur from where her father shifted to Mumbai just a few months before her birth.
She was inclined towards fashion from a very young age.
In childhood, she saw her mother and other women stitching beautiful clothes from raw fabrics and got inspired by them.
After getting a degree in fashuion, Dongre did an internship with the erstwhile royal family of Dhrangadhra, Gujarat.
She started her career by designing clothes for local boutiques.
She did that work for around 12 years.
Once, she experimented with the western wear and created a unique collection for young women. However, none of the boutiques agreed to accept the clothes; as they thought that they were useless.
Anita got so angry by that incident and decided to sell the clothes herself.
In 1995, she established her fashion house âHouse of Anita Dongre.â
Initially, she started her business from a small 300 square foot area. Her sister, Meena Sehra, also accompanied her in business.
Dongreâs fashion Label shelters four clothing brands and one jewellery brand named AND (western wear), Global Desi (ethnic wear), Anita Dongre (bridal, couture prĂŞt, menswear), Anita Dongre Grassroot (organic clothes) and Pink City (Fashion Jewellery).
Anita loves dogs and has 5 pet dogs.
