DAVID ABRAHAM: Creative director of ABRAHAM & THAKORE, the Singapore born designer, a graduate of the National Institute of Design, Ahmadabad, is constantly searching for the simplest way to express complex design ideas. He is focused on conceptualizing and reinventing the A & T story each season to keep it contemporary, directional and relevant both in India and internationally, where it is sold in some of the finest stores the world over. His first eponymous collection was launched in Bergdorf Goodman in New York.
