Being a part of such a prestigious event, Aashna said, “When L’Oreal Paris first told me that they want me to walk for their Le Défilé show at Paris Fashion Week this year, I genuinely couldn’t believe it. It’s a dream come true for me. To be walking on the same stage as such celebrated global figures is a huge honour. I am so grateful for the opportunity and to be the only Indian creator here, representing my country amongst people from all over the world is truly a surreal feeling.
A big thank you to everyone back home, my team and of course to L’Oreal Paris who had the faith in me to do this.”
