As a firm believer of sustainability in fashion, our couture house got certified from London College of Fashion in ‘fashion and sustainability’ in 2019.

Certainly, we have started working in the back end of fashion by exploring new draping styles, research more ethically produced fibres and making new patterns working remotely.

Make something which is timeless and which interpret art while being wearable, as a good design may not necessarily add to cost but can add infinite class to the finished garment.
