ETERNAL CLASSICS

From Pherans to fusion outfits, fashion trends in the beautiful valley have evolved through the years. Global fashion brands and sustainable homegrown brands are continually deploying elements of the valley into their work, promoting the skills of the artisans of Kashmir and the essence of slow fashion - legacies that can be passed down for generations to come.
Investing in an outfit that holds a part of the Kashmiri legacy means investing in an heirloom, a classic that can be worn all year long - through seasons, through years, and through decades. Modern Kashmiri trends are on par with the concept of sustainable fashion and follow the code of the predecessors - eternal classics that stand through time.

ELEGANT SILHOUETTES

From everyday casuals to festive wear, one can choose outfits crafted from organza, georgette, chiffon, art silk, and other beautiful fabrics.
