Ekantik is a modern-day gender-neutral brand telling the untold stories Africa to help bridge the gap between western and African cultures. The word EKANTIK is a sanskrit term for ‘one who overcomes worldly desires’, and this sits at the heart of the brand’s mission – to make honest, practical clothing rooted in simplicity, fit and a passion for detail. Seven letters, split into three, a clear and strong message, unstoppable wind of pure energy.
Driven by a desire to create looks that are wearable inspired by all the hardworking people, a lifetime of travel, exploration and street. Ekantik delivers innovative garments with a core value of the brand to be made from the best available and particular opinion regarding fabric, fit and fabrication.
A utilitarian approach fused with tailoring and a touch of Africa creates a design recipe that is clean, sophisticated and unique.
Our goal has always been to inspire a brighter, bolder tomorrow through creativity and positivity. But changing the world doesn’t happen overnight (trust us). We all #startsomewhere. We may not solve all the world’s problems by selling clothes but we hope to provide an outlet to the people who care. We challenge you to consume different and welcome you to our army. We can’t wait to help you build the wardrobe of your dreams.
With love,
Anjali Borkhataria
