In a world that increasingly craves authenticity, designer Mrunal Khimji offers a breath of fresh air with her stunning debut collection, Lehren. This all-handcrafted line is a love letter to the ocean and a tribute to the artisans who bring her vision to life.

Lehren, meaning “waves” in Urdu, reflects the rhythmic, eternal motion of the sea. The collection captures this fluidity through its use of pure crêpe fabrics, which move like water with every step. From ethereal saris to flowing kaftans, each piece tells a story of meticulous craftsmanship, designed to drape the body in elegance while invoking the calming, free-flowing essence of the ocean. The collection offers an array of garments, from kurtas and lehengas to jumpsuits and dresses, all infused with the spirit of movement and grace.

The heartbeat of the Lehren Collection lies in its seamless fusion of Indian and Arab aesthetics. Mrunal Khimji has created a collection that bridges these rich cultures, crafting garments that resonate with history, yet are undeniably modern. Each piece is adorned with intricate surface design, painstakingly handcrafted using time-honoured techniques that speak to the designer’s deep respect for tradition.

Mrunal’s commitment to ethical fashion and sustainability is evident in every stitch. From working closely with artisans to ensuring that each piece is made responsibly, Mrunal is at the forefront of a movement that prioritizes both artistry and conscience.
