EkaDesign Studio Pvt. Ltd. Information

Eka finds charm in the familiar - pastoral pleasures, a lilting breeze or the warmth of a lifelong friend. This spirit takes shape in soulful clothing that lives on through individual expression. We make our own textiles, favouring the mechanics and raw beauty of natural fibers. Functional and timeless, Eka is made in India and draws from indigenous skills whereby natural materials are developed from India’s regional craft belts. Eka is reflective of designer Rina Singh’s personal ethos of simple living, connected to her upbringing in a family of agriculturalists. Her sound understanding of textile design has developed through international exposure and extensive travel across rural India; over this time, her love of people, nature and craft has grown. These connections are central to her vision and shared by her husband Sandeep Dua, Eka’s Managing Director.
