india ENSEMBLE Full time

ABOUT ENSEMBLE


Ensemble is the story of modern Indian fashion. A creative idea before its time that decolonised design, revolutionised retail, pioneered professions, and galvanised India’s very first fashion retailer. Ensemble is more than a multi-designer showcase. Championing the Make in India movement since its launch in 1987, Ensemble looks at the way India approaches dressing today. Our categories span Handloom, Menswear, Luxe Prêt, Accessories, and Luxe Indian. From household names like Anamika Khanna and Guarav Gupta, through to exciting new labels like Kshitij Jalori, Karan Torani, and Label Pratham, Ensemble has served as the springboard for tomorrow's talent, and continues to be on the lookout for the next in fashion.

At Ensemble, a team of bright minds work towards fostering an ever-evolving class of qualities: technical skill, initiative, and the desire for a creative reckoning for Indian fashion in the global imagination. Our communication carries the emotional heft of heritage dressing while envisioning a space for contemporary design voices. We examine the beauty in young designers cutting patterns with resolute practicality, just as we do avant-garde designers who view fashion as spectacle. Ours is a portfolio of dressing for many lifestyles, across the retail and digital landscape.
