Fashion Designer, Luxury Image Architect, Personal Stylist and Educationist with over 15 years of experience across fashion design, celebrity styling, image consulting and costume design — and the founder of DV Fashion Studio.

The journey
From local roots to a global vision
With a design philosophy rooted in Indian aesthetics and contemporary sensibilities, Disha has carved a distinctive space for herself in the fashion and styling industry. Her work brings together Indian textiles, craftsmanship, modern silhouettes and personalised styling, with individuality at its core.
Her designs and styling have been showcased across platforms including Ahmedabad Times Fashion Week, Bombay Times Fashion Week, Asian Designer Week, Western Theme Whimsical in Jaipur and the Jodhpur Culture Show, as well as international fashion and beauty platforms in the Philippines and Mauritius.
Over the years, Disha has styled personalities including Neha Kakkar, Ankita Lokhande, Rashami Desai, Shweta Tiwari, Jannat Zubair, Esha Kansara, Bhoomi Trivedi, Harshdeep Kaur, Daisy Shah and Krunal Pandya, among several others.
She has also worked as a costume designer for the film Congratulations and has been associated with projects connected with Sharman Joshi’s production. Her professional collaborations include established brands and industry platforms such as Mercedes, Femina Miss India and GIFA — Global India Fashion Awards.
Taking Indian fashion and craftsmanship to international platforms has been an important part of Disha’s journey. She has been associated with a Khadi showcase in Mauritius and a fashion presentation in the Philippines during the Miss India Intercontinental pageant. Her expanding global journey also includes an association with New York Times Fashion Week as an Official Stylist.
Today, her work stands at the intersection of fashion, luxury, education, personal branding and identity, with a vision to take an Indian-rooted yet globally relevant approach to fashion and image to a much wider audience.
Beyond fashion design
Image as a form of communication
For Disha, fashion goes far beyond creating garments. As a Luxury Image Architect, she works with individuals to understand how clothing, grooming, body language, wardrobe, styling and personal branding can come together to communicate a stronger and more authentic personal identity.
Her philosophy is not about changing an individual to fit a trend. It is about understanding the person — their personality, lifestyle, aspirations and individuality — and translating that into an image that is authentic, refined, confident and impactful.
Appearance
Clothing, colour, fit, grooming and wardrobe built around the person.
Behaviour
Body language, posture, presence and the etiquette of every room.
Communication
Voice, tone and the personal brand that speaks before you do.
Education & mentorship
Guiding the next generation
Education and mentorship form an increasingly important part of Disha’s professional journey. She has been invited as a jury member across beauty pageants and fashion institutes, giving her the opportunity to interact with and guide emerging designers, models and fashion professionals.
Her experience across fashion design, celebrity styling, costume design, fashion shows, image consulting and personal branding enables her to combine creative expression with a practical understanding of the fashion industry.
