Kaka Sumi: Footwear, Fashion & Finding his Place | From Nagaland To The Runway

Not many people grow up dreaming of becoming a shoe designer.

Maybe you won’t, because he speaks diplomacy almost as fluently as he speaks Prada. Funny, brutally honest, and wildly self-aware, this is Kaka Sumi, unfiltered.
