Indian designer brand launched 2002 as contemporary sub-label of Ritu Kumar. Western silhouettes with traditional Indian embellishments, embroidery and prints.
Label Ritu Kumar is the contemporary sub-brand of legendary Indian designer Ritu Kumar, launched in 2002 to reflect modern trends. The designer introduced India's boutique culture starting in 1966, opening pioneering fashion retail spaces in Delhi, Calcutta, and Mumbai. Ritu Kumar's design philosophy mingles traditional Indian techniques—hand-block printing, embroidery, textile patterns—with Western tailoring and silhouettes, creating a bridge between heritage and contemporary style. Label operates as the modern expression of this vision, offering dresses, suits, sarees and fashion pieces for men and women. The C-Scheme location in Delhi positions the brand in the city's luxury shopping district. Ritu Kumar herself won the Padma Shri award (India's fourth-highest civilian honor) in 2013 for her contributions to fashion and textiles. The label appeals to consumers seeking Indian craftsmanship expressed through contemporary forms.
