About Fashion Education & Training
I’ve spent more than a decade in fashion styling, but nothing matches the energy of teaching and mentoring. I get a kick out of helping people discover their style voice and watching them grow. Having guided over 5,000 students, I know the real magic happens when you step out of the textbook and into the chaos of a real fashion shoot.
What You Get With Me
- All About Doing: I’m big on hands-on learning. Forget just theory - we get into the nitty gritty, from wild draping experiments to building a real portfolio you can show off.
- Industry-Ready Fashion Skills: I won’t sugarcoat it - the industry moves fast. My sessions focus on what actually matters out there, not what’s stuck in old textbooks.
- Fashion Portfolio Development: Each project is a chance to build work you can actually use to land gigs or admissions.
Pathways I Offer
- University-Level Mentoring: As Visiting Faculty at SOFT Pune, I teach everything from fashion communication to creative styling. You’ll find us experimenting, creating, and prepping for big showcases.
- On-Set Internships: Through my stylesquadma crew, you assist on live projects – think real jewellery campaigns and ad shoots. No chota-mota (small-time) observing, you’ll actually work.
- Creative Styling Workshops: I run deep-dive sessions on draping, colour analysis, and niche styling like sportswear and jewellery.
I’ve been at this for 12+ years, studied in India and Italy, and my students now make waves in their own right. If you want to actually do the work, not just read about it, let’s get started.

My Story
Hey, I’m Mitali – born and brought up in Mumbai, but my style’s got a global twist thanks to years spent in the US and Italy. Dad’s an Air Force legend, and that pride kinda runs in my veins. I’m happiest when I’m travelling, vibing at Adiyogi, or just chilling with friends at a wild Navy Night. Family’s my anchor, always. Fashion’s my world, but it’s the memories that matter most.
My Work
Styling & Creative Direction - I handle fashion styling and creative direction for commercials, music videos, celebrity events, and personal shoots.
From Idea to Final Look - I’m all in, from concept to the final outfit. Each campaign or shoot is a full-on team effort.
Personal Touch - I love making pre-wedding styling magical, like I did for my brother’s shoot – it’s about memories, not just clothes.
Fashion Educator - I’ve taught over 5,000 students in fashion styling workshops and I still get excited helping new talent grow.
