Jenjum Gadi, is a menswear designer who was born in Arunachal Pradesh, North-eastern India, in a small community known for exceptional handwoven textiles and distinctive traditional costumes.
His specialty lies in conceptual innovative embroidery, texturing and pairing fabrics and using draping and layering techniques. His pieces speak about joy, celebration and design.
The designer always looks back home to get inspiration from old traditions, reviving forgotten weaving techniques and embroidery motifs.
The foundation of every collection is the use of hand spun, handloom or handwoven textiles with unusual and innovative cutting techniques to create garments that create a stir when worn, but are extremely comfortable and flattering to the wearer.
He is now a veteran of the fashion industry, having showcased his collections at various fashion weeks.
‘Always remember that fashion is an exercise in imagination and beauty’ – is a saying that drives Jenjum in his creative process.
