Meet your Designer Didi

Paper Texture

Hello Hello! 


I am Shivangi aka Your Designer Didi.
A design grad from NIFT Mumbai and FIT New York with a certification from IIMA and IIMB (Just C to go. Lol), I am a design educator and entrepreneur.
With DesignerShala, I share everything I know and have learned as a designer for over 14 years and dive deep into fashion as a career. My number one goal as a mentor is to
help you learn from my experience so that you can find the courage to take action on your own fashion dreams, get into the top fashion and design schools and start your own Fashion Label and design an ecstatic life that you love wholeheartedly. Come and start your journey with me!

Graduated FIT

I was one of the first batches to go to FIT New York in a unique dual-degree program and graduated Summa Cum Laude. Backstaged for fashion weeks, learned so much along the way. BEST year of my life.
