From the atelier to Miami.

NOHRE was featured in Vogue México as part of RISE, PARAISO’s platform spotlighting a new generation of swimwear talent at Miami Swim Week.

A moment we’re proud to have been part of, and one that marks another chapter in the NOHRE story.

NOHRE AT MIAMI SWIM WEEK.

And there I was, walking our first runway dressed in NOHRE, proud to be one of its first muses.

Thank you to Tahirah, who was quite literally on the ground with me and worked tirelessly for days, to Dani for styling the show and my runway look, and to the entire PARAISO team for believing in Tina and me.

We couldn’t have asked for a better beginning to the #worldofnohre by @nikitamadhyani

Pinching myself. I can’t believe NOHRE @maisonnohre is our baby @panjwanitina ✨ by @nikitamadhyani

A runway show in Miami. Just a few weeks to prepare. My days in Miami before our show were 23 hours long- between media, prep, casting, networking, a campaign shoot and working with my team. But it all came together, beautifully ✨ by @nikitamadhyani

As a little girl, I dreamed of going to New York to attend design school. I had pushed aside those dreams and essentially forgotten them as I pursued dentistry instead. My little sister would ask me if I was happy in this career of choice. As I finally did find myself in NYC living my dreams, she was the first to congratulate me- reminding me that I had been wishing for this since I was 15. My constant supporter through all of my twists and turns. Love you beyond words and happy to have my sister to grow up and old with. Cheers to another beautiful year ahead. 😘 by @nikitamadhyani

Christmas came early but right on time at Nadoo. Learning customs and traditions of the different parts of India has been such an experience. Thank you @chef_shri_bala for the beautiful experience. by @nikitamadhyani

‘Twas a Delhi Night. Dhruv Kapoor 2.0 x Patron by @nikitamadhyani

Enjoying all phases of myself. I’m getting to know her- the way she moves, the way she thinks. Learning about my roots, my culture… meeting all the pieces that make me. It’s a blessing I can do so while building a beautiful business.

Wearing NOHRE @maisonnohre by @nikitamadhyani

It always starts with a sketch.

A few lines. A silhouette. A sense of color. Slowly, an idea begins to take form.

This is where our Valentina swimsuit began. Before the fabric, before the runway, before the final look, there was simply an idea on paper.

MAKING OF A RUNWAY

A look inside the making of NOHRE’s runway debut at Miami Swim Week @paraisomiamibeach , as we brought Water Becomes Her to life. From casting and fittings to styling, rehearsals and the final walk, here’s a look at everything that went into the show.

CASTING CALL

The casting process is always one of the most important parts of the show. We spent the day meeting models, seeing the collection on different faces and finding the right energy for the runway.

SHOWSTOPPER CASTING

Finding the showstopper is a moment of its own. We were looking for the right presence to open the show and set the tone for everything that followed.

GIFTING PREP

Getting the gifting ready ahead of the show. From packing each piece to putting together the final details, everything was prepared with our guests in mind.

FINAL MODEL LINEUP

The final lineup comes together. Every model, every look and every detail is placed in order before the show begins.

THE COLLECTION

A closer look at the collection before it made its way onto the runway. Each look was styled to bring out the details, textures and silhouettes that define NOHRE.

REHEARSING THE OPENING ACT

Before the doors open, there’s always a final run-through. The opening was rehearsed, timing was checked and the models got familiar with the pace of the runway.

STYLING IN PROGRESS

The styling team brings everything together backstage. Final adjustments, last-minute changes and all the little details that make each look feel complete.

BEAUTY CALL

Hair and makeup were underway as the models started getting ready for the show. Another step closer to the final looks.

MEDIA SPOTLIGHT

A moment with the cameras before the runway. We welcomed media and captured some of the behind-the-scenes moments throughout the day.

RUNWAY LINEUP

Just before the show begins. The final looks are ready, the lineup is set and everyone takes their place backstage.

RUNWAY FINAL FRAME

And then it was time. The collection came to life on the runway, with each look bringing a different part of the NOHRE world into the room.

THAT’S A WRAP

NOHRE on the runway, debuting Water Becomes Her. A collection that began in the atelier and by @nikitamadhyani

Life at our atelier in Delhi lately. A bigger workshop, new faces, and new systems giving shape to our days. Our next collections are taking form as we explore new directions and embroidery techniques.

Every day, we’re learning and growing, and our vision grows with us. There’s magic in every bead and thread, and in seeing it all come to life. 🧵 by @nikitamadhyani

August has always marked new beginnings for me, and this year I’ve taken a step back to look at the journey that brought me here today.

When I started dental school and eventually opened my own clinic, I could have never dreamed that I would one day be the co-founder of a fashion and lifestyle house. Looking back at these photos, from my white coat ceremony through residency, my own clinic, and so many moments in between, I remember how often I thought I was behind.

Starting over in my 30s felt scary. I thought I was walking away from one dream to start all over again. What I didn’t realize was that dentistry helped me grow into the woman I am today, and that everything I learned along the way would come with me into my second dream.

What a beautiful journey it’s been. I look back in awe of the woman I became through those years. I’m so proud of her hard work, her tenacity, her desire to innovate, and to always do better than the day before. She’s still such a big part of who I am today, and I’m beyond thankful for those first few chapters.

Looking back at these photos reminds me that it’s never too late to start again. Who we are is a culmination of our past, present, and future selves. I thought I was starting over, but maybe I was just taking everything I had become with me. by @nikitamadhyani
