Niesa Kolakhe, crowned Mrs. India Femme International 2024, is more than a titleholder—she is a dynamic force of purpose, style, and transformation. A multifaceted trailblazer, Niesa is a celebrated fashion stylist, lifestyle influencer, former corporate professional, flight attendant, event host, and an unwavering advocate for women’s empowerment. Her life story is a radiant tapestry of resilience, reinvention, and the courage to live authentically.
Hailing from Nagaland, the vibrant “land of festivals” in Northeast India, Niesa proudly carries her cultural roots. Now married to a Malayali Bangalorean, her home reflects a beautiful blend of Northeastern and South Indian traditions—a living symbol of unity in diversity.
In 2025, Niesa took the global stage by storm with her international runway debut at Paris Fashion Week, walking for renowned designers such as Manish Vaid, House of Vendome, and Sukimapapa (Japan). Her presence on the runway challenged and redefined global norms around age, beauty, and purpose. For Niesa, fashion is more than style—it is storytelling, courage, and celebration of one’s evolution.
As a mother of two, Niesa exemplifies balance and grace. She is a passionate believer that every woman—regardless of age or circumstance—deserves to reclaim her dreams. Her journey redefines success, beauty, and motherhood, not as societal constructs, but as personal narratives of strength and self-belief.
With over a decade in fashion styling and eight transformative years in the aviation industry, Niesa brings together discipline, creativity, and leadership with striking synergy. Her collaborations with luxury brands including Dior, Chanel, The Ritz Carlton, JW Marriott, Taj Hotels, Hilton, Orra, CKC Jewels, Isharya, Hidesign, and more, mark her as a formidable presence in the world of fashion and lifestyle.
But her impact doesn’t end with beauty and brand. As the Director of Surfland Composites Pvt. Ltd, Niesa is leading a quiet revolution in sustainability—building net-zero homes using agricultural waste and recycled PET bottles. This groundbreaking work directly combats climate change and promotes a circular economy, proving that luxury and responsibility can, and must, coexist. She is not just reshaping homes—she’s reimagining the future of sustainable living.
In every role—mother, creator, leader, and visionary—Niesa Kolakhe shines with authenticity and conviction. Her story is not just one of success but of substance. She is a modern changemaker who reminds women everywhere that it’s never too late to become the woman you were always meant to be.
Her message to the world:
“You are not defined by where you come from but by how boldly you rise. Rewrite your story, relive your dreams, and never be afraid to begin again.”
