According to Namisha Raj, Founder, MacDougal Studios, “Our aim is to establish an Artistic Apparel Label that is Global and Modern in its spirit and Louvre in its appeal, such that a commune of mutual understanding through Art and Fashion is achieved. We believe in Sustainability and Caring for our environment. Disposable masks have put the planet at a huge risk of non-biodegradable waste that is piling up. We need to focus on better avenues of masks and Reusable Fabric Mask is a brilliant choice.”

“The initial response to masks has been tremendous. We have added celebrities, actors, models, cinematographers, fashion designers, photographers, renowned artists, RJs, and filmmakers to our list of loyal clients. We have been receiving queries from stylists, models, and cinematographers from all around the country for customized masks too. Various artists have also given a shout out to our products on various platforms. This has also encouraged us to come up with more designs and products in near future,” she further reiterates.
