What is Lakmé Fashion Week?

India’s longest-running fashion week, staged in Mumbai in partnership with the Fashion Design Council of India (FDCI). The Cast Index SS26 edition ran 19–22 March 2026 at Jio World Convention Centre.

Is India Couture Week the same event?

No. India Couture Week is the FDCI’s dedicated couture platform in New Delhi, typically in late July. Cite the edition you mean.

Are Indian models on the Global 50?

When the evidence supports a numbered rank, yes — same formula as every other nationality. Others sit on Watch until the evidence is there.
