Veteran fashion designer Rohit Bal passes away at 63

The Indian fashion industry mourns the loss of iconic designer Rohit Bal, who passed away on November 1. Known for revolutionizing Indian fashion with his blend of traditional and modern aesthetics, Bal’s contributions have left an indelible mark on the industry.

The Fashion Design Council of India (FDCI) announced his passing on their official Instagram account, commemorating Bal’s impact: “We mourn the passing of Legendary designer Rohit Bal. He was a founding member of the Fashion Design Council of India (FDCI). Known for his unique blend of traditional patterns with modern sensibilities, Bal’s work redefined Indian fashion, and inspired generations. His legacy of artistry, and innovation along with forward-thinking will live on in the fashion world. Rest in peace GUDDA.”

Bal, who made a remarkable return to the runway just weeks ago with his collection Kaaynaat: A Bloom in the Universe at Lakme Fashion Week, had been grappling with health issues.

In 2023, he was hospitalized at Medanta in Delhi for heart-related ailments. His post-recovery message expressed gratitude for the support he received, saying, “Your love and prayers have been a beacon of hope and strength… As I heal, I am reminded of the resilience of our bond and our shared dreams.”
