KOHIMA - The fashion industry has begun to flourish across Nagaland even as peace and stability returns to the insurgency-hit state.

One can witness the mushrooming of fashion houses selling trendy attire and accessories in Kohima.

Youngsters are sporting chic looks with trendy cuts and styles. Many of them are even turning to modelling as a career.

“Ten years back, the fashion industry was not given much importance. I think people of Nagaland are so fashionable and are really interested in fashion. I feel that there are so many talents in modelling as they have looks and height,” says Chumchibeni Lotha, a model.

People associated with the fashion industry felt that the growing peace would help other industries as well.

“With peace and harmony returning, the State is slowly processing. Moreover, peace talks are being continued at the highest level and I hope that it will bring positive results. I think after this not only (true for) the fashion industry but the rest of the industries will also flourish,” said Nungshienla Longchar, a fashion designer. (ANI)
