fabrics, intricate details, and ornate colors are the elements that
Indian-American fashion designer Shekhar Rahate masterfully blends together to
orchestrate his collection of haute couture gowns. The Rahate Collection
encompasses the beauty and elegance of high-fashion frock by combining a
variety of styles and fabrics from form-fitting to free-flowing to
mul...ti-patterned.
His fashion goals are to accentuate a woman’s
silhouette while allowing her to move with comfort and grace. The Rahate
Collection of luxurious gowns not only define haute couture perfection, but
also carries with it the attention-grabbing appeal of the Red Carpet. His
unique gowns have already appeared at the Emmys, Oscars, and the Cannes Film
Festival.
Rahate's display of women's formal wear and headpieces at
the 2012 International Fashion Supermodel (IFSM) event in Hollywood topped off
a Halloween-themed celebrity-clad event that was broadcast to millions of
viewers in the United States and China. Rahate also regularly participates in
the New York Fashion Week (NYFW). He presented his new collection at the
Couture Fashion Week during NYFW 2012 where it was well received.
Rahate has more than 15 years of experience in the fashion industry and
received his training at the Dubai Beams International Fashion School. His
runway shows have crossed the fashion globe from Los Angeles to San Francisco
to New York City, as well as overseas to Germany, Switzerland, India and
France.
Rahate’s creations have garnered numerous accolades in the
fashion arena including:
Fashion Couturier of the Year
Award – Los Angeles County Sheriff's Indo-American Advisory Council,
April 2012
Versace Award for Global Excellence in Fashion –
Global Independence Day Gala, US Asia Business Forum, September

Mahatma Gandhi Pravasi Medal for outstanding services
and achievements in regard to role of global Indians in the international
arena – NRI Welfare Society of India in London, October 2012.
In
addition, Rahate is scheduled to receive a Crystal Ball Award as a Visionary
Designer from Dr. Laura Wilhelm later this year.
Rahate is also no
stranger to the political arena as he designed Hollywood Haute Couture dresses
for the 2013 Inauguration of United States President Barack Obama. In
addition, he is the only designer in history ever to show at the prestigious
United Nations General Assembly Hall where 450 delegates from across 192
nations witnessed his work.
His gowns have also been worn by
countless prominent figures such as Maria Amor, Madame Chair M.C. Townsend,
Bambou Ada (Adrienne) Diagne, actress Vanessa Williams, actress Michelle
Romano, as well as “Miss Asia Pacific”, “Miss World”, and “Miss Universe”.
