Designing was always innate in Priyanka, hence the creative process of translating what makes someone an individual, what moves them and touches their soul and being able to translate all that into beautiful dresses comes naturally to her. Keeping in mind the latest trends, style and class and delivering all that with a warmth is what forms the essence of her work ethics. The Studio and Collection :

The studio has a range of ready to pick designs and specializes in Couture and Luxe Pret for both Indian Ethnic and Westerns. Each dress by Priyanka Bhambry is a piece of art : the work of many hours of thinking, conceptualizing, hand stitching etc. Artisan crafts, near extinct embroideries, rich traditional weaves from India to the finest of lace and silk are the heart and soul of her designing.
