Kartik Research
Indian craft clothing label · 2+ locations · New Delhi, NYC
Kartik Research sells through Dover Street Market and Bloomingdale's, but it is still a New Delhi label run by the founder who started it with $5,000 from reselling sneakers. Kartik Kumra said in 2025 he had no plans for outside investors, and artisans across India hand-weave its fabrics.
The Big Picture
Kartik Research is a young New Delhi clothing label still run by its founder, Kartik Kumra, with no outside investors reported and two stores of its own, in New Delhi and on the Lower East Side. Artisan groups across India make its fabrics, but the brand names none of them and publishes no audits. At five years old, it has little public labor or environmental record.
