Over the past two decades, she has pioneered a revolution in Indian textiles. Using traditional techniques and indigenous materials, but with constant experimentation and research, Neeru has created a whole new vocabulary in textile design. The combination of her unique sensibility, especially in tone and texture, with her profound knowledge of the weaving process and other textile techniques, as well as her commitment to support the craft sector has made such innovation possible.

Neeru’s label covers a range of products including Shawls, Scarves, ready to wear garments and home furnishings. Neeru Kumar is a graduate of the National Institute of Design, Ahmedabad.
