Our story

About Silkrose

 

Silkrose stands for uncompromising luxury, exceptional quality, and sustainability. It is guided by a passion for timelessness and environmentally friendly practices. The brand takes inspiration from classic pieces and reimagines them to blur the line between nightwear - resort wear - evening wear: making clothes that elicit joy whilst being transitional.

From irresistible separates to exquisite dresses, our collection is divine, sensual and sophisticated, that celebrates everyday indulgence, elevating the ordinary and empowering you to feel your best.

Our products are made exclusively of the finest mulberry silk, vegan silks and organic fabrics available in the world. Silkrose believes in choosing natural and biodegradable fibres to maintain circularity.

We make an effort to keep our brand's carbon footprint aligned with our slow fashion ideals, therefore we produce in small quantities. To stay true to our zero-waste values, we also attempt to produce our products out of scrap and discarded fabrics wherever possible.

We focus on timeless designs and use the highest quality materials to help promote buying less by buying better.

 

Our founder

Silkrose is the brainchild of Aakriti Singh. Aakriti returned to India after completing her studies in IR and Finance from Durham University, UK. With a deep sense of passion for uncompromising luxury and sustainability, Aakriti founded Silkrose in 2021 after years of trying to find loungewear that is aesthetically luxurious and environmentally conscious. Moreover, after a year into the pandemic, she longed to create the perfect pair of pyjamas that was an impeccable blend of comfort and style that looked just as chic outside the bedroom. Aakriti also studied Fashion Design and Marketing in New Delhi at Pearl Academy to familiarise herself with the technicalities of design before establishing Silkrose.
