An Intimate Brunch at Taj Palace
Anamika Khanna, Creative Director and Co-Founder of AK|OK, and Marc Lewkowitz, CEO of SUPIMA, played host at a brunch in Nizwan Lounge at Taj Palace, New Delhi, where the news broke. Fashion insiders, media and tastemakers in the room saw select garments from the upcoming Autumn/Winter 2027 collection, an early hint of where the Anamika Khanna SUPIMA collaboration is headed.
The Anamika Khanna SUPIMA Collaboration: What Each Side Brings
The Anamika Khanna SUPIMA collaboration is built around one question: what can premium cotton become in AK|OK’s hands? The label has a reputation for an unconventional approach to contemporary fashion, and SUPIMA brings its know-how in extra-long staple cotton. Together they want to look at how fabric innovation, craftsmanship and modern design feed each other, and how far an exceptional material can take a design idea.
