Nirvana Singh loves sparkle.
“I am absolutely obsessed with
sparkle,” said the founder and de-signer
of India by Thread, which
runs operations out of both Jackson
Heights and South Ozone Park. “Not
just sparkle in clothing, but in person-ality
as well.”
Her company’s slogan is “sparkle
is our thing,” and the founder shared
that she wants customers to feel
the “sparkle” in their attitudes when
they wear her clothes and acces-sories.
Growing up, Singh said her family,
who is originally West Indian from
Guyana, did not have a lot of Indian
clothing, save for the outfits that they
wore to special occasions like wed-dings
and services.
“It wasn’t part of our culture early
on,” Singh said.
