Our Story

Heritage clothing for everyday living.

कहत कबीर सुनो भाई साधो…

STUDIO KABIR is a narrative based quality clothing and lifestyle brand. We work with rural and tribal handloom weavers across India. We design stylish and sustainable clothing, out of premium handwoven textiles.

Who is KABIR?

Kabir was a weaver(Julaha), mystic poet and a social reformer from the 15th century, India. He is Indias most famous and revered weaver. Saint Kabir is popularly known for “Kabir ke dohe”. Most of his work was concerned with devotion, mysticism and discipline.

Why STUDIO KABIR?

Textile is the second largest polluter on the planet. Fast fashion has taken over the market. The condition of our culturally rich craftspeople residing in the rural pockets of India is alarming. We need a reform! Ancient Indian wisdom, our industry research and creative outlook around beautiful, handcrafted textiles proves that handmade fabric is the solution to these problems.
Indian handloom sector is a symbol of our country’s rich and varied cultural heritage. It is an important source of livelihood in rural and tribal parts of our country. Indian handloom directly addresses women’s empowerment with over 70% of all weavers and allied workers being female.
Rooted in nature, Indian handloom has eco-friendly production processes. It provides flexibility to innovate and meet changes in fashion trends.

What if Saint Kabir would have made clothing from handwoven fabrics? What would it look like? Will it have a message? Inspired by Saint Kabir we build a heritage clothing brand. Everyday clothing that is stylish and comfortable to wear.

Vision

At STUDIO KABIR our vision is to bring in a reform. A cultural, environmental, political, socio-economical reform.
To make handloom clothing an integral part of our everyday life. Clothing that celebrates the rich heritage of India.
A Textile X Culture syncretism.
