Dhruv Kapoor

ABOUT THE BRAND
Fearless self-expression, twisted modernity, and the rebellious spirit of the new millennium come together to make the brand Dhruv Kapoor.
Since its inception in 2013, the brand Dhruv Kapoor has been synonymous with revolution, transformation, and independence. Far from traditional aesthetic imagery, the brand depicts an endless play of past, present, and future. It is an unrestrained reflection of contemporary society and its interactions with the most diverse cultures where convention is re-defined in the tireless search of new perspectives.
Transcending generations, the brand Dhruv Kapoor brings its ideology to life through tools of confident self-expression. Every collection reinterprets aesthetic codes through a new perspective and challenges the norm. Celebrating an individualistic sense of fashion and awareness, our fashion thrives on originality and freedom.
It’s all about self-expression and creating your own tribe in an era of revolution - unbound, uncaged, unlimited.
