SHILLONG: Meghalaya’s Rupert Wanlambok Lynrah is all set to compete with 20 other fashion designers and weavers in the second edition of North East India Fashion Week in Itanagar.
“The event is a platform to foray into the competitive field of fashion design by showcasing our creativity and talent,” Lynrah, who participated in one of the promotional shows in the run up to the event in Guwahati recently, said.
