Mumbai's dabbawalas, taxi and auto drivers, fisherfolk walked the ramp for a fashion show.
What better way to celebrate the spirit of Mumbai than with a fashion show dedicated to the people of the city.
Pearl Academy hosted their annual graduation event 'Portfolio 2017' in Mumbai.
As part of their campaign #MumbaiByDesign, the students of the academy got dabbawalas, taxi and auto drivers, fisherfolk and even cops to turn models for a show.
Don't believe us? Take a look!

The students added a fresh twist to their look with brightly coloured tiffins and sneakers.
