watch and grasp things accordingly from experienced people.
The rich art and different cultures, moved her to do something artistic, as we know
to - day India is the heartthrob of the Fashion world and most of the embroideries
come from GUJARAT. She first started learning TEXTILE DESIGNING under Prof. Khalid
from National Institute of Design. Rebecca did a course at NIFT on pattern Making &
Construction of Indian Garments in ' 98. She also did her Textile Printing at NID using
stencils & Screens in various techniques of printing.She held her first Solo fashion show
