YAKSHI MALHOTRA

Yakshi Malhotra had always wanted to be an artist. Originally from India, she moved to the UK at 17, to study knitwear design in Nottingham. During her time within the degree, she pursued a year of placements at McQ by Alexander McQueen, DKNY and Leutton Postle. Finding in this way her own artistic path, she established her namesake clothing label in late 2013.

Focused in the creation of complex and compelling knitwear, Yakshi Malhotra reflects her love for textiles and craftsmanship with her lovely knitted pieces, made with a combination of high quality fibres, , using domestic machine and hand crafted techniques- think of crochet, hand knitting and embroidery.
