This November, Mumbai will witness one of India’s most ambitious fashion and cultural celebrations as Laska Fashion Mahotsav 2026 opens its doors to participants and visitors from across the world. Organized by Laska Fashion Modeling Pvt. Ltd., the 40-day festival will take place from 20 November to 30 December, transforming a specially developed 10-acre venue into an international destination for fashion, creativity, entertainment, and cultural exchange.
Designed as more than a conventional fashion event, Laska Fashion Mahotsav aims to create opportunities for aspiring models, established professionals, designers, influencers, and creative artists to showcase their talent on a global platform. The festival combines runway presentations, professional development, cultural programs, competitions, networking opportunities, and international collaborations under one umbrella.
The event’s digital journey began with the inauguration of its official online platform by former Maharashtra Chief Minister Shri Sharad Pawar, marking the launch of an integrated registration and event management system. Strengthening its international presence, actress Sunny Leone will officially introduce the event through her Instagram platform, extending the festival’s reach to audiences across the globe.
Creative leadership for the Mahotsav is provided by internationally recognized Swedish Fashion Director Master Bibo, whose vision focuses on bringing together fashion excellence and cultural diversity. Rather than limiting participation to experienced professionals, the event encourages individuals from different backgrounds and experience levels to become part of the global fashion ecosystem.
One of the festival’s major highlights is its national modeling program. Participants from categories including men, women, married models, teenagers, and children will receive three days of professional training covering runway techniques, grooming, portfolio development, personality enhancement, communication skills, and career guidance. Outstanding participants will earn the opportunity to perform during the grand finale alongside celebrities, designers, and distinguished guests.
The international segment will welcome professional models from multiple countries for an advanced runway experience designed according to global industry standards. The training program includes body movement, posing techniques, choreography, designer fittings, and stage coordination under the supervision of an experienced international faculty. The choreography team features professionals from Nigeria, the Philippines, Nepal, Mexico, and Thailand, creating a truly multicultural production environment. Selected participants will also receive opportunities for international exposure and professional networking.
Fashion designers will compete through the prestigious Designer Quest, where innovation, craftsmanship, and creativity will be evaluated by an international jury. Among the distinguished jury members is renowned Indonesian fashion designer Ivan Gunawan Putra. Winning designers will receive attractive cash prizes, trophies, recognition, and future collaboration opportunities with Laska Fashion.
Recognizing the growing influence of digital media, Laska Fashion Mahotsav will also honour content creators through its Influencer Awards. Creators from fashion, beauty, lifestyle, technology, travel, and entertainment categories will compete through a structured selection process that highlights creativity, audience engagement, and originality. The overall winner will receive a cash prize of ₹1,00,000 during the grand award ceremony.
With participation expected from India and several other countries, Laska Fashion Mahotsav 2026 represents a new chapter in the country’s fashion landscape. By combining professional training, international collaborations, designer showcases, influencer recognition, and cultural celebrations, the festival seeks to become a landmark event that connects talent, creativity, and global opportunities on one extraordinary stage.
