    FabAlley launches new digital Campaign #IMeanBusiness

    MUMBAI: Homegrown western wear brand, FabAlley- that is by and for modern millennial multitasking women has launched a Fab new campaign to empower women in leadership. The digital campaign, #IMeanBusiness aims to move beyond soft talk and bring out the real picture of being a woman in position – what it takes to come out of one’s comfort zone, be responsible for that move, and owning the ups-and-downs of being in-charge.

    In the campaign, FabAlley has partnered with four self-standing women from diverse fields to talk about their professional journeys and what it takes to build and own their narratives every single day. Having ventured into entrepreneurship alongside her vocal art, Tanya Nambiar, singer & voice-over artist talks about how women don’t have to restrict themselves to one profession and dream. Upasna Dash, founder of Jajabor Brand Consultancy, talks about how research and preparation are the only keys to unlocking success and acing work. For Garima Avtar, professional rally car racer, it is about identifying your truest passion and, for Megha Agarwal, Corporate Chef, Summerhouse Café and Auro Kitchen & Bar, knowing that you must get work done, no matter what the odds, is what spells leadership. The campaign is about real talk with women who walk the talk, inspiring audiences to believe in their own journeys and proclaim that they mean business.

    Commenting on the campaign, FabAlley  Co-Founders Tanvi Malik and Shivani Poddar share, “Being entrepreneurs who started from scratch, we know and believe that being a boss woman goes beyond honeyed “women-can-run-the-show” conversations. It is not just making that one move, it is about owning that move and the journey that follows, keeping yourself on top of the game while battling bad days. This campaign is an attempt to bring some realness to the idea of being a woman with power, and through our conversation with these feisty boss ladies, we endeavour to inspire other women to take on their dreams.”

    The campaign also launches the brand’s power-dressing line that aims to empower women with its functional and fashionable styles. Dismissing the strict, corporate connotations, FabAlley’s power suiting line this year leads the way for versatility with stylish separates that can be worn in an endless amount of ways. Think belted blazers that add form to a boxy look, 80’s inspired flared trousers and culottes to work from boardroom to bar, and tuxedo dresses that are fierce yet feminine. The capsule collection is priced between Rs.1,500-Rs.3,400.

  • FabAlley launches second leg of #FabFitsAll campaign

    MUMBAI: Online fashion brand FabAlley has introduced the second leg of the #FabFitsAll campaign to champion inclusivity in fashion and embrace body positivity. This digital campaign features influencers proclaiming the message of believing in being fashionable, irrespective of one’s size, shape, height, or weight as well as engage in conversations to iterate the consequences of body shaming and encourage women to embrace their bodies.  

    FabAlley has partnered with six diverse influencers – Vishakha Bhaskar, Anupriya Roy, Sherlyn Singh, Arushi Soni, Sitara Singh, and Aishwarya Sharma to discuss their journey, discomforts, goals, how they dealt with body shaming and their personal messages for all the women who are apprehensive in their approach to fashion.

    The brand believes #FabFitsAll is not just a campaign but a culture that embraces becoming your best self without adhering to what society has deemed as acceptable and 'normal'.

    FabAlley co-founders Tanvi Malik and Shivani Poddar said, “After seeing the success of the first round of #FabFitsAll it became imminent for us to extend a second leg for the campaign to ensure that this movement, this conversation does not stagnate. We want to empower women to embrace and love their natural selves. As a brand, we want to encourage all women to throw away inhibitions. With #FabFitsAll, FabAlley is propagating body positivity strongly.”  

    They added, “Inclusivity is our brand’s DNA & our fabulous tribe of diverse fashion influencers is proclaiming it, loud and proud. Women have always been under tremendous pressure to conform to sizeist norms. #FabFitsAll is our plea to women, who break down a little every day because they feel they don’t fit the “ideal” mould to throw the ‘ought to be’s’,’ should be’s’, ‘if only’s’ and ‘when I’s’ out the window, because they are fabulous just the way they are.”
