Indian designers need to focus more on the country's heritage if they are to make a mark internationally, says eminent fashion journalist Suzy Menkes.

"You have a magnificent heritage. Why don't Indian designers have more confidence in their heritage?" Menkes, fashion editor of the International Herald Tribune (IHT), wondered while addressing a press conference.

The conference was to have been held last December but was postponed in the wake of the 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks.
