The recent visit to the Sabyasachi flagship store was an invaluable experience for the Global Luxury Goods & Services Management (MGLuxM) program's Batch 14 students, providing them with practical insights and inspiration that went beyond traditional classroom learning.

The visit allowed students to witness the fusion of art and fashion that Sabyasachi is renowned for. Observing the detailed curation of antique furniture, rare artifacts, and contemporary design elements deepened their understanding of how historical and cultural influences can be effortlessly integrated into modern fashion.

Exploring the store's diverse collections, from bridal wear to fine jewelry, gave students a broad view of the intricacies involved in high-fashion retail. They gained insights into the design process, from concept to creation, and saw how the brand's philosophy is reflected in each garment and accessory.

This exposure was particularly beneficial for those interested in pursuing careers in fashion design or retail management, as it highlighted the importance of attention to detail and the role of craftsmanship in creating luxury products.

The private salons and personalised shopping experience demonstrated the value of exclusivity and customer engagement in the luxury market. Students observed how creating an intimate and tailored shopping experience can enhance customer satisfaction and build brand loyalty. This understanding is crucial for anyone looking to enter the luxury retail sector, where personalised service and a deep appreciation of customer needs are key to success.

The visit also offered practical insights into the business side of running a high-end fashion brand. Students learned about the strategic decisions involved in curating collections, managing a flagship store, and maintaining a brand’s image.
