New Delhi [India], July 8: Indian fashion is witnessing a powerful cultural resurgence, and leading the charge is Sotbella, a homegrown Affordable luxury Brand founded by Meher Sheikh. With the launch of its SS25 Capsule Edit, the brand goes beyond fashion--it ignites a movement titled #YesWeCanIndia, championing India's legacy as the original birthplace of luxury.
The editorially driven campaign taps into the country's rich sartorial roots and reframes them for the contemporary Indian consumer. More than just a collection, Sotbella's latest release celebrates heritage, craftsmanship, and self-reliance in style.
Luxury Didn't Arrive in India. It Was Born Here.
Sotbella's SS25 Capsule Edit is an evocative tribute to India's time-honored textile traditions and the artisans behind them. The collection is an aesthetic blend of heritage motifs and modern silhouettes, from bold-toned evening wear to sharply tailored Dresses. Each piece tells a story--a reflection of India's historic role in shaping global luxury fashion.
At the heart of this new chapter is #YesWeCanIndia, a campaign that reminds us how our culture and craftsmanship has always been the inspiration to the global leading Brands for their creative outcome for the world, without acknowledging India's root and rich craft. With the #YesWeCanIndia campaign we are redefining the phrase into a powerful affirmation of India's artistic identity.
A Cultural Movement in the Making
Across social media, the hashtag #YesWeCanIndia has grown beyond a campaign and into a cultural phenomenon. Young Indians, especially from metro cities, have begun showcasing modern Indian wear with a renewed sense of pride. The message is clear: Indian fashion doesn't seek external validation. It defines its own luxury.
Speaking about the campaign, Meher Sheikh, founder and creative director of Sotbella, said, "Our ancestors built the fabric, the gold, the glam--long before 'luxury' had a name. We're simply rewriting the story in a modern context, reminding the world that #LuxuryBeginsInIndia.
In SS25 Capsule Edit she repositions fashion as not just clothing, but storytelling with purpose.

The Woman Behind the Movement
Helming the vision is Meher Sheikh, a former media personality turned fashion entrepreneur. Her leadership marks a shift in how Indian fashion brands are conceptualized--not just as commercial ventures but as cultural voices.
"Sheikh represents a new breed of Indian women in fashion," notes a fashion analyst. "Not just creators, but change-makers, shaping the global narrative from the inside out."
Under Sheikh's guidance, Sotbella has carved out a space that celebrates inclusivity, heritage, and forward-looking design. Rather than relying on nostalgia, the brand reinterprets the past for today's audience, offering relevance, not just reverence.
Fashion That Moves a Nation
The response to the campaign and collection has been nothing short of extraordinary. On Instagram and X (formerly Twitter), #YesWeCanIndia is steadily trending as young Indians resonate with its message. In a market saturated with Western ideals of beauty and elegance, Sotbella's bold re-centering of Indian heritage has struck a timely chord.
Conclusion: A New Era of Indian Luxury
As the global fashion narrative expands to include voices from previously overlooked regions, Sotbella's success is both symbolic and substantive. It reflects a growing desire among young Indians to reconnect with their roots while embracing modern self-expression.
In Meher Sheikh's words: "They said India can take care of itself. We're showing how--through culture, confidence, and couture."
