Anamika Khanna’s bridge-to-luxury brand AK|OK has unveiled a limited-edition collection that masterfully bridges artisanal craftsmanship with contemporary design. Fronted by Banita Sandhu, this latest offering embodies the brand’s core values of freedom, individuality, self-expression and bold femininity.
Designed for the modern woman, the collection delivers a wardrobe of versatile, statement-driven pieces that empower wearers to embrace their uniqueness with confidence.
At its core, the collection is an exploration of contrasts where heritage craftsmanship meets contemporary silhouettes. Time-honoured techniques such as intricate zari embroidery and delicate lacework are seamlessly woven into sharply tailored blazers, sporty separates, short skirts, easy pants and oversized shirts.
Fabrics like velvet, structured denim and fluid silk add tactile depth and texture, while playful ruffles and striking prints inject a sense of whimsy. Each piece is thoughtfully designed for adaptability, allowing wearers to curate looks that are both personal and enduring.
In line with AK|OK’s signature narrative of innovation, this collection offers a fresh
perspective on style— one that champions fearless self-expression. Whether styled for a cocktail evening affair or a laid-back outing, each garment stands as an example to the brand’s commitment to empowering women through fashion.
Reflecting on the inspiration behind the collection, Anamika Khanna shares, ““This line is about embracing imperfection and celebrating the contradictions that define us. It’s about creating designs that allow women to confidently interpret fashion in their own way. Banita embodies the spirit of this collection—fearless, authentic and unapologetically herself.”
Standout pieces from the collection include a meticulously hand-embroidered waistcoat that redefines traditional craftsmanship in a contemporary context and a tribal-inspired blazer that underscore AK|OK’s ability to reinterpret the past through a forward thinking lens, ensuring timeless appeal.
The limited-edition line is available on an order basis across all AK|OK Anamika Khanna stores and online.
