FDCI President Sunil Sethi recognised Tamana Chona, after whom the Tamana NGO is named, as an “important part” of his journey. “A celebration of the crusaders of Tamana,” Sethi called the fashion show an “evening of courage and style”.

“Fashion is the most potent form of non-verbal communication and this is where we find a synergy with Tamana, it gives a voice to the marginalised,” expressed Sethi in one of the previous FDCI x Tamana shows.
