Early life and career

Singh is from the Supaul district of Bihar.[1] He graduated from the National Institute of Fashion Technology (NIFT) in Bangalore, India.[2] As of 2015, he was appointed as Assistant Professor, Fashion Design, at the NIFT campus in Shillong.[3] In 2012–13 he conducted skills development programmes related to fashion design for the rural women of Assam.[4]

Recognition

Singh's label, Rainush, was launched soon after he had success in a television competition.[5] He won the reality-based competition Let's Design in 2011. As with all the other competitors in the series, he had to work with cotton to design an haute couture collection.[6] In 2010 he won the Most Creative and Innovative Design Collection Award[2] in the NIFT Graduation Fashion show. He also won an award for the best prêt-à-porter garment in the first season of Let's Design, 2009.[7]

gollark: It's somewhat important to incentivize people to make things which aren't conveniently sellable physical objects.
gollark: Plants should really have solar-powered microcontrollers with cellular/satellite links so they can receive emails.
gollark: I mean, natural ones yes, artificially designed ones I'm fine with. Although any sufficiently short one is probably going to turn up in some organism somewhere through sheer chance, even if it's not doing the same thing.
gollark: I think intellectual property definitely needs reduction. Copyright lasts waaaaay too long, patent weirdness basically stopped 3D printer development for ages, and trademarking-or-whatever "sky" is ridiculous. Also, you can patent some software stuff you probably shouldn't be able to.
gollark: In the UK, though, the situation is mostly that there are various different "ISPs", but they mostly use Openreach's network, which is sort of spun off from BT but not really. Although there are also cable-based ISPs (or, well, at least one?) and in big cities tons of high-speed fibre ones.
