“The Earth is a very small stage in a vast cosmic arena,” said Carl Sagan, the renowned American astronomer, as he observed our planet one last time from Voyager 1, as it passed beyond its communicable orbit past Saturn. It was a humbling moment, one that put much into perspective for him—and for those of us who were listening. The Pale Blue Dot, originally a spoken essay by Carl Sagan, imparted a profound perspective to me as I reflected on this collection. Travel with me through his words…

“Look again at that dot. That’s here. That’s home. That’s us. On it, everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you’ve ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives.” In the wake of my father’s passing last month, I have been repeatedly confronted with the realisation that we are but a speck in the grand scheme of the cosmos—small, fragile, and not in control. Fluctuating between the highs and lows of his illness—“the aggregate of our joy and suffering”—I reflected on how every memory we have ever made, of friends, family, and foes, exists here and only here, on this “mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.”

This collection emerges from the fear that “in all this vastness, there is no hint that help will come from elsewhere to save us from ourselves.” As the air quality in Delhi continues to worsen year after year, we find ourselves rushing our nine-year-old daughter to our mountain home, seeking cleaner air and blue skies, all the while contemplating the kind of future we are leaving behind for her. Perhaps it is time to abandon city life and move to a village?

When we begin to consider the intelligence of a species, it is often based on how they build their habitats. Our modern cities, though, are remarkable nests—symbols of our ingenuity, inventions, and engineering—reshaping the face of the Earth and determining our collective fate. Yet, as our ways of living grow increasingly unsustainable, I imagine how it might be if humanity paused to reflect seriously on our future. What happens to these cities when they are abandoned, when they become uninhabitable for us?

And yet, I find myself descending into hope, trusting that nature will show us the way. Switching between verses from the Gita and Carl Sagan’s speech, I find comfort in the words, “We are the custodians of life’s meaning” and “The significance of our lives and our fragile planet is determined only by our own wisdom and courage.” Perhaps, in time, we will embrace a humbler existence, and nature will begin to reclaim the concrete jungles we have built.

This collection is born of loss and the slow process of healing. It envisions our foreseeable future through rearview mirrors and paints vivid images of wild animals reclaiming our homes as their own. The glorious geometry of human dwellings transforms into new life, emerging from the womb—an evocative metaphor for my hope that humans will indeed find the wisdom to enhance the meaning of our lives. These thoughts are realised by our team of over 2,000 fashion workers—a family that has grown over the years through our unwavering endeavour to touch more and more lives with our work. Our deliberate, measured processes not only provide sustainable employment but also allow us to slow down the consumption of natural resources. In doing so, we highlight the intrinsic value of ‘haute couture’—which celebrates craftsmanship, innovation, and purposeful design as a whole.
