    Miraggio scoops the summer with a creamy new drop

    MUMBAI: This summer, fashion got a little sweeter. Miraggio has stirred up the accessories scene with Summer Scoop, a limited-edition handbag collection inspired by the creamy colours and indulgent textures of iconic ice cream flavours. Think zesty mango, silky vanilla, and moody chocolate—served not in cones, but on your arm.

    The brand dished out more than just bags. It kicked off the launch with an influencer-led mystery campaign—sending out cryptic PR hampers featuring ice cream scoopers, scratch cards, and secret notes that teased a flavour-forward reveal. The final treat? An exclusive pop-up in Mumbai, where creators, media, and contest winners discovered their personalised ‘flavour’ in bags—and on cones.

    To up the sensory ante, Miraggio teamed up with artisanal ice cream brand Indu, offering guests scoops that matched the bags: pistachio white chocolate matcha, milky chocolate, and saffron mango, among others. The result was an Instagrammable frenzy of reels, countdowns, and colour-coordinated content that had influencers—and their followers—licking their screens.

    “With Summer Scoop, we set out to do more than launch a collection, we wanted to craft an experience and launch one of our most unique campaigns yet. Fashion, much like food, evokes memory, mood, and indulgence, so we leaned into that feeling. By drawing inspiration from ice cream flavours and creamy textures, we created bags that are meant to be felt—literally and emotionally. From the buttery finishes to our flavour reveal at the pop-up, every detail was designed to tickle the senses, spark curiosity, and serve up a little joy,” said Miraggio founder & CEO Mohit Jain.

    By blending nostalgia, sensory cues, and a dash of cross-industry flair, Miraggio’s campaign hit the sweet spot. Summer Scoop wasn’t just a launch—it was a tasty masterclass in storytelling that you could almost taste.

    Groyyo promotes MD Nitin Jain to co-founder

    MUMBAI: B2B fashion manufacturing technology company Groyyo has elevated its managing director (exports) Nitin Jain to the position of co-founder.  

    Nitin, who spent the early years of his career leading sales and  marketing at Wearwell Industries (his last employer)  – building its global order book from the ground up –  played a significant role in architecting Groyyo’s exports shift.

    “Our exports business could not have gotten to the scale and quality it has without his painstaking effort and  drive ,” said Subin Mitra, co-founder & CEO, Groyyo.  “He has been pivotal in scaling our order book in regions like the UK and EU, bringing on-board strategic customers like Next, John Lewis and Mango. We are confident his larger role will not only enable us to double down on these markets but also expand into newer and more exciting ones like Australia and South Korea.”

    Nitin joined Groyyo on its journey from day one. He said he was looking at accelerating the company’s exports business “enabling more and more SME’s to take their business global and work with some of the most marquee clients globally. Our focus will be to leverage Groyyo’s design, manufacturing and supply chain capabilities to not only go deeper within our existing clients but also form additional strategic partnerships in newer markets.”

    Groyyo, which was founded in 2021, has seen its exports business grow three times in the past two years and is rapidly expanding in markets such as the US, UK and  EU catering to some of the largest fashion and lifestyle brands in these regions.

    Backed by global investors such as Tiger Global and  Alpha Wave Global, it raised $5.5M in venture debt from Trifecta Capital and Lighthouse Canton earlier this year.

  • Mango Turkish-origin billionaire founder Isak Andic dies following hiking accident

    Mango Turkish-origin billionaire founder Isak Andic dies following hiking accident

    MUMBAI: The Mango high street fashion  brand has lost its founder Isak Andic. The 71 year old Turkish-born entrepreneur, who was an avid mountaineer and hiker, passed on over the weekend (Saturday)  doing what he loved dong the most exploring mountains.

    According to reports in the Spanish media, he was on a family outing in the Montserrat mountains around 40 km northwest of Barcelona when he slipped in the Collbató saltpetre caves at midday and fell around 150 meters to his death. 

    Andic was born in Istanbul in 1953 and his family moved to Spain in 1969. His fascination with the denim fabric led him to create a brand Isak Jeans in the early eighties. He opened several stories in Barcelona and Madrid. They were then renamed as Mango in 1984 and grew the enterprise along with his brother Nahman. 

    Today, Mango has consolidated its position as one of the leading international fashion groups, with a major presence in more than 120 markets, close to 2,800 stores and 15,500 employees worldwide. The company aims to exceed 2,800 stores by the end of 2024 and to reach more than 3,000 stores worldwide by 2026. This growth will enable it to exceed one million square metres of retail space, highlighting markets such as Spain, France, Italy, Germany, the United Kingdom, Poland, India, Canada and the United States. Mango has just a single brand and it does not own any factory, outsourcing its production mainly to lower-cost Turkey and Asia.

    It registered a turnover of 3.1 billion euros in 2023  growing more than 15 per cent over 2022.  Almost 80 per cent of its sales are now generated outside of Spain. Forbes estimated Andic’s net worth to be $4.5 billion  (£3.6 billion). He was the non-executive chairman of the group at the time of his passing. 

    Paying tribute to Andic, Mango group CEO Toni Ruiz said: “Isak has been an example for all of us. He dedicated his life to Mango, leaving an indelible mark thanks to his strategic vision, his inspiring leadership and his unwavering commitment to values that he himself imbued in our company. His legacy reflects the achievements of a business project marked by success, and also by his human quality, his proximity and the care and affection that he always had and at all times conveyed to the entire organization. His departure leaves a huge void but all of us are, in some way, his legacy and the testimony of his achievements.”

  • Sony files copyright infringement case against ‘Badmashiyaan’; Delhi HC restraints release

    Sony files copyright infringement case against ‘Badmashiyaan’; Delhi HC restraints release

    MUMBAI: The Delhi High Court today has put on hold the release of the Bollywood film Badmashiyaan on a plea filed by Multi Screen Media (MSM), which is the Indian subsidiary of Sony Entertainment Television, alleging copyright infringement by the movie’s producers.

     

    Justice Indermeet Kaur has restrained the producers of the film from airing trailers of the movie, which according to MSM, is a copy of a Korean film titled Couples as well as its own production Mango, which is yet to be released.

     

    The court, in its interim ex-parte order, also issued notice to VRG Motion Pictures, which has produced the film as well as Sidus FNH Corporation, the producer and copyright owner of the Korean film, and has sought their replies by 22 May, 2015.

     

    MSM, in its petition has also sought damages of Rs 25 lakh from VRG for infringing its copyright. It has contended that rights to make a Hindi remake of Couples was obtained by co-producer Kaleidoscope Entertainment (KEPL) from Sidus FNH in March 2013. Thereafter, MSM and KEPL entered into a film production agreement, before commencement of production of the film, and “hence MSM is the first owner of copyright in and to the said film,” the petition claimed.

     

    Mango, was produced in 2013-2014 while its trailers were exhibited in February-March 2014. In January this year MSM and KEPL had come across trailers of Badmashiyaan on YouTube and found that the movie was an adaptation of the Korean movie as well as that of Mango.

     

    It was also alleged that the producer of Badmashiyaan copied the plot, treatment and screenplay of Couples as well as Mango. Badmashiyaan, starring Suzanna Mukherjee, Sharib Hashmi, Siddhant Gupta, Gunjan Malhotra and Karan Mehra, was slated for release on 27 February.
