LIVA, the New Age fabric ready for fashion world
“I did not know fibre can be extracted from wood pulp,” said Ranaut at the launch. “Moreover, what attracted me towards LIVA was the fabric from the fibre which is so fluid, comfortable and fashionable and I simply loved it,” she added. She pointed out that the fabric drapes the body just the right way and wasn’t too boxy or tight. “The fabric moved as I moved. I think it’s the kind of fabric that can go well with any clothing and occasion. Personally, I feel LIVA is going to play a very important role in the world of fashion,” she opined.
Hosted by K K Maheshwari, Managing Director, Grasim Industries and Group Director-Textiles, a Aditya Birla group company, the gala event was attended by top fashion designers and stalwarts from the textile and retail industry. They came together to experience the world of natural, fluid fashion. Among the attendees were: designer Wendell Rodricks, Puja Nayyar, James Ferriera, Jatin Kochhar and Anita Dongre.
Speaking at the launch Maheshwari said, “We needed to create a distinctive and relevant end-consumer promise. With years of experience and several intense rounds of understanding, we found one that resonates strongly with the desires and beliefs of customers. Not only does it fully satisfy them on the aspect of being a natural product, it also delights them with its distinctive aspect, which is its soft drape, or ‘fluidity’. I am delighted to announce that we are launching this product under the brand name ‘LIVA’ with the very simple but meaningful and attractive proposition of ‘Natural Fluid Fashion’.”
