Fortunately, he also has plenty of talent. An online stroll through hisFall 2010 collection is an exercise in lust control. These are sumptuous clothes, artfully constructed creations of the most gorgeous textures and materials. Eight years at luxury house J. Mendel helped give him the chops, but there’s more to it than that. Mohapatra looks to every corner of the cultural and intellectual universe for inspiration: the armor of 16th century Japanese warriors, the paintings of German abstract artist Hans Hartung, even his own X-rays. “I keep my eyes open all the time,” he explains. “The most beautiful things come from not so beautiful things.”
Add to the mix his innate Indian sensibility, and the package is complete. “I come from a heritage that’s so rich. It’s a constant feed that I have, and without it I don’t think my approach to design would be the same.” Indeed, he says, he makes an effort to rein in that influence. For him, it’s not about making a Western version of a sari, but about discovering new things – like the hand-woven peacock feathers, once worn by Indian royalty, that he stumbled upon on a trip to India and used in his debut collection. “When the light hits it, it becomes magical,” he says.
So it’s no wonder that Mohapatra’s star is rising. Three seasons in, his clothes are sold in more than a dozen high-end stores around the world, and regularly featured in the pages of Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar, and WWD. In February, he became one of 12 emerging designers chosen to participate in the CFDA Fashion Incubator program, entailing, among other things, subsidized studio space in New York’s Garment Center. “It’s like moving from a tiny apartment to a penthouse suite,” Mohapatra says of his new digs.
Of course it doesn’t hurt that in a random drawing among the 12 recipients he scored the biggest studio. When you’re hot, it seems, you’re hot.

Bibhu Resort collection for 2012

For his first resort collection, Bibhu Mohapatra was inspired by vintage Fifties postcards from the South of France. “Postcards tell someone’s story. It’s a glimpse of a moment of happiness in someone’s life,” he said. And what a good life it proved to be for the Bibhu girl. Mohapatra focused on more day looks than in past seasons, with dresses in pretty brush stokes, embellished twinsets, slim trousers and a chic trenchcoat. There were still plenty of beautiful cocktail dresses and gowns; a cocktail frock in lace crochet over layers of yellow chiffon was especially noteworthy.

The graphics include a recent sketch of mine from my fall 2011 collection, look # 15 and a favorite quote of mine from Greek folk hero Aesop.
The inspiration: To me style has everything to do with ones inner quality. It is essential to locate those key qualities to establish ones own very individual style. Clothes on their own don't define style on their own.

Bloomberg: Scene Last Night: Fashion Prince Bibhu Mohapatra's Goat Hair
- Scene Last Night:
- Fashion Prince Bibhu Mohapatra's
- Goat Hair...
By Amanda Gordon - Feb 16, 2011 12:57 PM ET
High above Manhattan, Bibhu Mohapatra celebrated his Fashion Week outing with cocktails last night on the 46th floor of the Trump SoHo.
Floor-to-ceiling windows offered stunning pictures of the Brooklyn and Manhattan bridges and beyond.
The skyline provided backdrops for guests such as fellow designer Prabal Gurung and model Anjhula Singh Bais, a blogger for Vogue India.
It was a tranquil scene compared with Fashion Week’s Lincoln Center base, where temporary tents were sandwiched between the David H. Koch Theater and the Metropolitan Opera House.
Earlier, the designer’s 33 models sported crow’s feathers at their neck or long gowns in blue and plum. For the woman who needs to be noticed, there was a bolero in long goat hair.
“The collection is about the conflict of extreme opposites that we carry in our minds: good versus evil, darkness versus light,” Mohapatra said.
