A gala fashion show staged Indian designer Abhishek Roy's ethnic collection on day one of the UKBC 2023 event celebrating Bengali culture. Members of the community and models took to the runway in Roy's trademark fusion of traditional and western wear. Organized by the non-profit UKBC uniting over 60 communities, the 2-day event features music, drama, food and more. Now in its 15th edition, the UKBC aims to foster Bengal's arts, bring together the diaspora and emerge as the biggest annual British Bengali gathering. Roy's fashion showcase marked a vibrant start highlighting local talent and traditional weaves.
