Talking about making her debut at Cannes, Namita told Brut, “Typically you associate Cannes with film stars or people from the movie industry. Getting entrepreneurs here shows that we can be multidimensional and we can do really well in business and ace it in fashion as well, in a way breaking some stereotype.”
She added, “I am wearing Elio Abou Fayssal and I love the colour because it is so different. It is a colour I have never worn before. I just hope I can manage this long train but I am having fun. Pray I don’t trip over it on the red carpet.”
