The Repurposed Cape is a striking fusion of Ladakh’s Nambu wool and the intricate weaves of Kullu shawls, reinterpreted into a front-open poncho with a flowing handkerchief hemline. Designed for effortless layering, this piece drapes with a sense of movement, embodying the fluid elegance of Himalayan textiles. By repurposing pre-existing Kullu shawls, each cape carries a distinct character, with patterns and colors that tell a story of craftsmanship. Adding Ladakh’s handwoven Nambu lends structure and warmth, ensuring both comfort and durability.
