Kanika Goyal Label (KGL) was founded in Delhi in 2014, after internships at Prada and Marchesa and a year and a half assisting Bibhu Mohapatra. The label is built on the principle of paradox: structure and spontaneity, Indian craft and global tailoring, tradition and irreverence. KGL has shown at New York Fashion Week and London Fashion Week. The clothes are gender-fluid, architecturally cut, and use humour as a design tool. The opposite of decorative. The opposite of expected.
