The Fire of a Restless Mind is an exciting portrayal of an Indian fashion designer who aspired to conquer the humongous fashion world of Paris. As the author says: ‘My attempt as a designer was to make India proud by representing India on the international fashion-catwalk’.
The book carries first-hand accounts of the designer’s various experiences, interspersed with unexpected adventures that she encountered in her effort to create an Indian global brand. In the course of her journey, she discovered that the fashion industry is the same worldwide―a tough business, where it is easier to find a critic than a friend. And a designer from India is only a drop in the global ocean of fashion!
India today is of great interest to people globally with the country influencing the fashion Meccas of the world. Top designers are looking at India for inspiration and are using Indian craftsmen to realize their couture creations. Ritu Beri’s autobiographical account provides an insight into the evolution of the Indian fashion industry.
Above all, The Fire of a Restless Mind is an inspiring rendition of the path-breaking journey of a fashion designer, a proud Indian, who relentlessly worked to make her big dreams a reality. Her experiences and insights can be a blueprint for aspiring designers to discover how it works in the international arena of fashion.
Ritu Beri says: The world I captured through my voyage I present through my book. I believe God sent me into this world with a promise. It is His promise I trust. I try to explain all this and more through The Fire of a Restless Mind.
