Just hours after unveiling his Spring 2025 collection at Paris Fashion Week, designer Kartik Kumra remains composed as ever. No longer a mere college project, Kartik Research has evolved into a fully-fledged brand. When asked about the inspiration behind this collection, he explains, “This season was driven by the election cycle and the shifting sociopolitical landscape. I kept thinking about governance, authoritarianism, and how fashion could offer an escape, a sense of hope.” Over the past four months, Kumra immersed himself in documentaries on pilgrimages, closely observing the uniforms people wear during these journeys. “From there,” he adds, “we explored the concept of modern Indian workwear—what it means today and its future direction.” His mood board was a collage of vintage documents and photographs from across the Indian subcontinent. A particular series by Quentin de Briey on Ladakh left a lasting impression.
