Pearl Academy Delhi and Mumbai campuses were abuzz with excitement as months of hard work, dedication and planning culminated into this year's 'Portfolio'. Portfolio by Pearl Academy is an annual, big-scale platform provided to the students that showcases and celebrates their ideas, innovation, and creativity.

Portfolio 2023 in Delhi and Mumbai was a kaleidoscope of individual imagination and interpretation of the theme 'Future Flashbacks'. From modern fashion accessories inspired from the ancient art and craft of Kutch to Gen-Z's take on social & cultural issues, every idea and every voice made its own impact.

The students were thrilled to receive support and encouragement from important guests, including Dia Mirza (renowned UN Goodwill ambassador, activist, actor, and filmmaker), Dr. Harsh Vardhan (Member of Parliament and former Minister for Health, Family Welfare, Science, Technology, and Earth Sciences), Sunil Sethi (Chairman of FDCI), and A Subramaniam (President: National Executive Council, ADI). It was a unique opportunity for students to showcase their work to influential fashion designers who inspire them, such as David Abraham, Nitin Bal Chauhan, Gaurav Jaigupta. They were joined by the academic team of Pearl Academy, including Aditi Srivastava (President), Alka Madhan (Regional Director - West, Pearl Academy Mumbai), Abhishek Singh (Regional Director - North, Pearl Academy), and Antonio Maurizio Grioli (Dean, Pearl Academy).

There was also a series of captivating fashion shows that gave students a platform to showcase their collections. From personal styling, and makeup techniques to the fusion of fashion and technology, Pearl Academy's Portfolio 2023 also kept its attendees engaged with an impressive line-up of workshops around diverse themes.

Thought-provoking concepts fostered dialogues on important issues like body positivity, cancel culture and sustainable fashion, which created momentum and empowered audiences, including many school students from Delhi and Mumbai who gained valuable insights and experiences. Based on such diverse and multifaceted concepts that encompassed various forms of human expression, creativity, and communication, the projects were truly an extension of each student's individuality and experience.
