RAFU’D as a brand focuses on highlighting the narrative textiles of India in products while making them contemporary and quirky. Each piece carries an art form rich with folklore. All while making pieces that will evermore remain in the wearer’s wardrobe. At every step, we try to make a conscious decision over how the life-cycle of our garment will affect the people who make it and wear it and its effect on our environment. As a result, we work with organizations that uphold fair trade standards & fabrics that are biodegradable or recycled. “RAFU’D” comes from an Urdu word- rafu, which means mending or patching a garment. The brand name is a reference to handwork, textures, and patching up the gap between narrative textiles and contemporary fashion.
At RAFU’D we make pieces that narrate the story of our past and our present. The story of our culture’s journey. The story of our textiles. The story of our civilization.
Pieces that tell story of us.
