She has also been showcased in various trendy fashion works, like Elle and Indian and American Vogue, etc. She was first chosen as a model by a modeling hunt at Bangalore University, purely on the basis of her height and talent. Lakshmi felt it would be nice to earn some quick bucks and gave it a shot. However, she didn’t take up this profession full-time until she passed out of college. She got her first worldwide fashion job opportunity from an agency in Europe. This agency had followed her work in an Indian magazine and wanted her to walk the ramp on one of the events of Jean Paul Gaultier.
This was followed by her visiting Paris and doing some shows there. With every consecutive season, she became more successful and had more projects in hand. Lakshmi wasn’t brought up conventionally and is daughter of an army officer.
