Be it the Milan Fashion Week or the Paris Fashion Week or closer home -the Lakme Fashion Week, the fashion industry has always called for worldwide attention. Where there is glamour, there is attention and where there is attention there is media; and that gives many of us a career in Fashion Communication.
