Hia Kavya Soni

Mumbai

Summary

With a background deeply rooted in art and design, I approach my work from an intensely holistic and spiritual perspective. Each project is a reflection of my personal journey, resulting in an authentic style that remains true to the messages I aim to convey. My passion for creative expression is matched by my desire to contribute to a professional and challenging environment—one that pushes my technical skills, strengthens my conceptual thinking, and fosters my growth as an artist.

As someone who has had the privilege of founding a streetwear brand, I have not only gained valuable hands-on experience but also forged meaningful connections within this community. Being a part of this industry has cultivated a strong sense of belonging, allowing me to contribute with genuine heart and purpose. My journey in streetwear has taught me to cater authentically to an audience, building trust and resonance through design and storytelling.
