Navratri Exhibition October 2026 Winners

Navratri Exhibition October 2026 Winners: Ruhvasofficial, Indian Threads Couture & Khwaahish Ek Chahat
The Navratri Exhibition on FashKnit brought together festive designs from boutiques across India, each with its own take on colour, silhouette and traditional style.
After the exhibition, three entries were selected as the winners for Best AI Model Shoot: Ruhvasofficial, Indian Threads Couture and Khwaahish Ek Chahat.
Each winning entry approached Navratri dressing differently, from a dramatic black ensemble to a bright pink look and a colourful blue lehenga.
Ruhvasofficial
Ruhvasofficial's winning entry takes a different route from the usual bright Navratri palette.
The black outfit has a strong, dramatic look, with gold detailing for contrast. In the AI model shoot, the movement and the detailing are much easier to see.
It is a good example of festive fashion that does not rely on the usual bright colours.
Prize
Ruhvasofficial receives:
• Digital boutique portfolio promotion
• Webpage promotion
• Social media promotion
• Free FashKnit credits
Congratulations to the Ruhvasofficial team on the win.
Indian Threads Couture
Indian Threads Couture brought a different mood to the exhibition with a bright pink festive ensemble.
The colour catches the eye, and the traditional detailing keeps the outfit in Indian festive dressing. The silhouette feels a little more current, without losing the festive character.
The AI model shoot shows how the outfit comes together as a full look, rather than a product photograph on its own.
Prize
Indian Threads Couture receives:
• Digital boutique portfolio promotion
• Webpage promotion
• Social media promotion
• Free FashKnit credits
Congratulations to Indian Threads Couture.
Khwaahish Ek Chahat
Khwaahish Ek Chahat's entry uses colour in another way.
The blue lehenga combines colourful prints, detailed borders and a matching dupatta. The prints keep the outfit playful, and the border work and styling give it a more traditional festive feel.
The AI model shoot shows how the lehenga, blouse and dupatta sit together, and how the colours work as one outfit.
Prize
Khwaahish Ek Chahat receives:
• Digital boutique portfolio promotion
• Webpage promotion
• Social media promotion
• Free FashKnit credits
Congratulations to Khwaahish Ek Chahat on being selected as one of the Navratri Exhibition winners.
A Navratri exhibition full of different ideas
What made this exhibition interesting was the variety of designs.
There was no single look that defined the event. One winning entry chose black and gold. Another leaned into bright pink. Another brought together blue, colourful prints and traditional detailing.
Independent designers are not working from one fixed template, and the same festive occasion can be interpreted in different ways. That is a lot of the appeal of boutique fashion.
The Navratri Exhibition also gave participating boutiques a chance to turn their designs into AI model shoots and present them closer to a fashion editorial than a regular catalogue image.
Congratulations to our winners
