Beneath the ethereal arches of the Collège des Bernardins in Paris, Rahul Mishra unveiled a transcendent vision for Fall/Winter 2025–2026—a couture collection that blurred the boundary between romantic devotion and spiritual odyssey. Inspired by the seven classical stages of love in Sufi poetry, Mishra wove a tale of longing, surrender, death, and rebirth into a sartorial symphony where each garment sang its own verse of passion.
