Q How do you see Kavi Kavi shaping up in next few months?

In the next few months Kavi Kavi will be showcasing the Spring 2014 collection from Dipika's recent trips to the factory in Bombay India.

Q The global slow down has effected your business in the recent times?

Our price points are affordable designer clothing and provide a good concept therefore it has not effected our business during the global slowdown. Here is a quote that I consider my mantra. "If you're making good clothes and you have a good concept, there's always business to do. The industry is hard when you're just following. If you have a point of view, if the quality and integrity and innovation are there, in good times and bad, the clothing is successful." - Andrew Rosen

Q Do you have plans to enter Asian markets?

Absolutely, the Asian markets are growing at a fast rate, we plan to expand there shortly.
