Studio 113

Story time

Lady K is the face of Studio 113. She steps out of a vintage mural that has hung in the House of Kanchana store at 113 Park Street, Calcutta, for decades. The House has dressed the city since 1967, and Studio 113 is its newest label.

The logo turns her into a postage stamp, after the ornate frames of vintage Indian stamps: her profile from the mural inside an arched window, a flower in her hair, the address 113 Park Street written as the stamp's value, and House of Kanchana as its mark of origin. Like a letter, every saree that leaves the studio carries her with it.
