Conceptual clothing born from intuition, not sketches. Every garment is a hand-painted canvas designed for stillness and self-reflection.

I created the 'Rooted' collection without any sketches or patterns, guided only by intuition. It’s a reflection of my own journey and is for anyone who has ever felt the need to pause, reflect, and come home to themselves.

This blue trench dress is a statement piece from the collection. The design began with hand-painted brushstrokes on canvas, which were then translated into this stylish, eclectic silhouette. It’s wearable art that carries the energy of the color blue, which so often finds its way into my work.

This mood board introduces the core idea of the 'Rooted' collection. It’s about celebrating everything you embody: your emotions, your values, and your reality. The image of the embrace is central to this theme of coming home to yourself.

Sometimes, moving forward means tracing our way back to what truly matters. This piece, with its warm, earthy tones and delicate embroidery, embodies the spirit of the 'Rooted' collection: finding strength in where it all began.

To be rooted is to belong. To culture, to community, to self. This is the philosophy stitched into every piece of the collection. It is a reminder that you are held, you are whole, you are becoming.

Watch the making of our 'Greener Co-ord Set'. The process starts with an architectural-inspired painting, which then becomes an accent on the shoulder pads of the handloom cotton vest. This is how I reimagine elevated styles for a chic, everyday look.

Every creative journey has moments of doubt. "What if it doesn't work out?" But then I see my wearable art on people who love it, and I know the answer to the other question: "What if it does?" This is the motivation that keeps me going.

About Wearable Art: The 'Rooted' Collection

I skip the usual patterns when I create these pieces, letting the fabric guide me instead. I apply hand-painted brushstrokes directly onto sustainable materials like cotton and linen. This means every garment in this collection is a one-of-a-kind original rather than a print, so you are wearing a piece of art that truly belongs to you.
