Ankita Khoje

With a profound appreciation for craftsmanship and a keen influence for creating classic, timeless fashion, I’ve always been inclined towards a modern yet rooted approach to design. My experience in the industry, particularly in the ready-to-wear section, has allowed me to work with diverse teams and bring challenging concepts to life. My educational background has equipped me with a well-rounded perspective on design concepts and strategic business development. Proficient in multicultural design influences and international market research, I am excited to explore fresh opportunities to create thoughtful fashion.
