An Indian Summer
A considered collection of handmade pieces - rooted in tradition, designed for modern, effortless living.
Our Story
An Indian Summer is a London-based artisan clothing & lifestyle brand shaped by a quiet appreciation for craftsmanship, heritage, and the beauty of the everyday.
Each collection is designed by us in London and created in close collaboration with skilled artisans across India, preserving traditional techniques such as hand block printing, weaving, and embroidery. These methods, passed down through generations, bring depth and individuality to every piece.
Designed to move seamlessly between home, travel, and sun-soaked destinations, our garments are understated yet deeply considered. We create pieces where effortless comfort meets artisanal beauty - designed for the rhythm of real life.
A Slower Approach
We believe in slow, conscious fashion - in buying less, choosing well, and wearing pieces that feel personal and enduring.
Our collections are produced in small batches using natural fabrics such as cotton, wool, and silk, allowing us to minimise waste while supporting independent artisan communities.
