AFEW Rahul Mishra’s Spring 2025 collection, unveiled earlier this season during Paris Fashion Week, pays homage to urban India’s rich cultural diversity, featuring vibrant florals and deep hues in prints, embroideries, and appliqués on classic silhouettes such as shirt dresses, pleated trousers, and tailored jackets. True to Mishra’s vision of creating timeless pieces, the collection sees Mishra use fashion as a lens to explore culture and convey diverse visual stories.

“Today’s launch of AFEW Rahul Mishra at Saks marks a significant milestone in my career,” said Rahul Mishra, founder of AFEW Rahul Mishra in a statement. “When I was honored with the International Woolmark Prize in 2014, the capsule collection I designed for the competition was selected to be carried by Saks Fifth Avenue. To reflect on how my designs have evolved since then, and now embarking on this new partnership with Saks, I am so proud and exhilarated to introduce Saks customers to AFEW Rahul Mishra. This label embodies a vision of effortless, easy-to-wear luxury tailored to the modern woman’s wardrobe, and I believe Saks is the perfect partner to bring that vision to life in the United States.”

Anamika Khanna’s seasonless AK|OK collection revolves around the following message: “Everything is AK|OK.” Inspired by the Bonda Tribe, one of India’s oldest, the collection features jackets, slouchy pants, drapes, and kaftans reimagined with striking prints, intricate embroidery, and vibrant colors. With intricate detailing, Khanna merges thick thread-work embroidery, reminiscent of biker studs, to redefine urban fashion.
