Surat (Gujarat) [India], December 23: The prestigious IIT Bombay festival “Mood Indigo” is set to take place on December 26. The renowned fashion show ‘Vogue’ will feature participation from the top colleges across the country. This year’s theme, Retro-Futurism, brings together the memories of the past and the imagination of the future on a single platform.
IDT Surat’s selection in this prestigious competition is a moment of pride for the entire city of Surat.
IDT students have beautifully presented the theme by designing garments using old wires, circuits, and electronic waste, creatively repurposed into futuristic fashion. Additionally, they have incorporated high-tech “Galaxy Fabrics” featuring minimalistic cuts, asymmetry, and modular designs.
