Career

Early career

Faria first got into the world of fashion as a fifteen-year-old, working in the industry in Delhi, Mumbai, and Colombo, Sri Lanka. Since the international Miss Earth pageant, she has had opportunities to break into Bollywood. In an interview, when asked how her life has changed after winning the Miss Earth 2010, she replied: "It has changed a lot — drastically. Right after the win, I started getting better work and more work. The quality of work shot up to the stars. And I have met so many new people, so many nice, very warm-hearted people. I have got to travel the world, see more places, get a taste of different cultures and traditions, which is very satisfying for me." She has posed for fashion magazines including Elle, Cosmopolitan, Vogue. She has walked the ramp in the Lakme Fashion Week, Wills Lifestyle India Fashion Week, and Colombo Fashion Week.
