New York-based fashion designer Madhu Munyal will present her latest collection at the next Couture Fashion Week in New York. Part of the “Jewel of India” collective, the fashion show will be held at 4:00 p.m. on Sunday September 16, 2012 in the opulent Grand Ballrom of the Waldorf-Astoria.

A native of Agra, India, Madhu Munyal attended LSR Delhi University, where she was top of her class in Psychology and went on to become an elementary school teacher. She continued to pursue her passion for fashion, studying fashion designers, working with tailors, and embodying all things fashion. A few years later Ms. Munyal moved to New York and began styling her closest friends, and so her label Charms Couture was born.

Now one of New York's top South Asian fashion designers, Madhu Munyal first made a name for herself by designing trendy, high-quality suits and sarees. She quickly gained a large following by styling her clients in one-of-a-kind pieces tailored to their unique, individual, and idiosyncratic tastes.

As Ms. Munyal worked tirelessly to achieve her singular business goal of creating beautiful, high-quality designs at an affordable price, her client list rapidly grew through enthusiastic word-of-mouth promotion. The collection soon expanded to include bridal couture, the designer's favorite part of the business. "I love designing for my brides. Dressing them in something they didn't think they could ever wear gives me a tremendous feeling of pride and accomplishment," says Ms. Munyal.

Madhu Munyal's creations have a special appeal to all women looking for a modern and chic look that is also glamorous with a South Asian flair.
