This is the principle that Tarana Rajpal Masand follows for all her designs. Her exquisite ensembles enhance a woman's body in the most beautiful way; subtly and ele'gantly. Sculpting with fabrics to capture all the subtle nuances of the beautiful woman, she designs garments to complement the female form and add to its natural grace.

Her love affair with fashion and creativity began at SNDT Bombay, after which she bagged the winning position at the first ever, Indian SmirnoffInternational Fashion Awards (SIFA '94). Apprenticing with renowned Indian haute couture gurus like Abu Jani - Sandeep Khosla and Sangeeta Desai, she was able to hone her talents to perfection. After a waltz with MTV as Malaika Arora's stylist, Tarana decided to lmillch her own label and there has been no looking back ever since. Her first collection at Ensemble sold out completely and in 2003 she launched her collection at the India Fashion Week, where she scored substantial recognition & clinched very prized international orders. She will also be showcasing her latest collection at Lakme India Fashion Week 2004, to be held in Delhi.

Catering to international clientele as well as the who's who of society, Tarana retails her exclusive collections from Ensemble at Mumbai and Delhi. Stopover today and slip into something more stylish, more you.
