Sneha Mundkur is a Fashion Stylist and a Designer. She did her Fashion Styling from Fad International Pune in 2011.In the initial start of her career she has assisted and interned with many known stylists from this field.This helped her learn,grow and mould herself into the stylist she is today.In 2012 she established her brand SSM -Stylist Sneha Mundkur.
She did some short courses with London School Of Trends in the recent years to keep herself updated.
Not many know this about her but she has been designing and styling for friends and family since 2002.But has been an outstanding Illustrator from the age of 12.She quoted “I remember when my father passed away in 1999,my world had shattered(I was just 11)… But it was my doggies and my love for illustration and fashion that really pulled me through it all.My mother would support me by getting all the stationary I required even when times were difficult.”
I remember people telling me ‘that the fashion world isn’t for people like you(Fat,Soft Hearted Empaths) and that you won’t survive in it’.
With no support system from this field who would understand Or help me cope, with all the body shamming, verbal and mental abuse I went through silently over the years(and actually I still go through it sometimes) … All I have to say to the haters everywhere is that yes it wasn’t easy;you guys didn’t make it easy either but Thank You for that. You made me the fighter I am today,gave me the right kind of push and helped me with this mindset “that yes it isn’t easy but it isn’t impossible either” Which has not only helped me in my professional life but also in my personal life. I am proud of myself for having my own back, never giving up and to have not only survived but conquered silent battles at every stage. Now I just see it as lessons I had to learn from to grow as a person and were here to only make me better and stronger.
10yrs of survival in this field,all my hardwork and with all the good and bad experiences kept aside…when I see my clients content again…without any kind of insecurities, who can’t stop smiling due to the joy they’re feeling,being amazed at how they look and feel on the inside, seeing them falling in love with themselves all over again, acknowledging and understanding the importance of self-love and self-care…I would say that is the real success to me.
