Available at: https://elle.in/fashion/india-art-fair-spotlight-2112-saldons-celebration-of-ladakhi-heritage-8696403 Padma Saldon, the visionary designer behind 2112 Saldon and ELLE Graduates 2024 winner, made a remarkable presence at the India Art Fair 2025. Featured in the exhibition ‘Indigenous Fashion Futures: A Living Archive,’ curated by Sreyansi Singh, her work beautifully weaves Ladakhi heritage with contemporary fashion. Sharing the platform with designers from Odisha, Jharkhand, and Manipur, Saldon presented a collection that pays homage to indigenous textiles as a repository of cultural memory and a catalyst for contemporary expression. In an insightful interview with ELLE, Saldon shared her journey, inspirations, and vision for Ladakhi craftsmanship in the global fashion landscape. Here are some compelling excerpts from the conversation: On Showcasing Ladakhi Fashion at India Art Fair: “Being part of the India Art Fair is an incredible opportunity to introduce Ladakhi fashion to a global audience. I’m excited to see how people engage with the intricate craftsmanship, heritage textiles, and contemporary expressions of Ladakhi identity.” On Her Work in the ‘Indigenous Fashion Futures’ Exhibition: “The pieces on exhibition are rooted in the history and heritage of Ladakh. Traditional garments like Lha, Logor dress, and Lamo beautifully showcase the intricacies of Ladakhi textiles and designs.” On Fashion as a Form of Political Power and Social Collectivism: “Fashion is deeply political—it represents identity, resistance, and community. By working with Ladakhi weavers and artisans, I aim to create economic opportunities and ensure that traditional knowledge is valued in a globalized world.” On Being Considered a ‘Record-Keeper’ of Her Ancestral Traditions: “It’s an honor and a responsibility. Our ancestors wove not just fabric but entire narratives of survival, climate consciousness, and cultural expression into their garments. As a designer, I see myself as a bridge—translating these traditions into contemporary forms so they remain relevant and celebrated rather than forgotten.” Padma Saldon's participation in the India Art Fair is a testament to her dedication to preserving indigenous craftsmanship while pushing the boundaries of contemporary fashion.
