In commenting on her association with the event, Neeta Lulla says, `This is a very exciting moment for our fraternity, as although some of us have had private shows in various countries in the past, it`s the first time that such an opportunity has emerged, providing designers and brands a unique platform to showcase their latest collections in countries where there is a huge potential of buyers and immense interest in following the latest Indian trends and styles that exist. This show will definitely help in networking with not only potential buyers but also opening up future international business opportunities.`
