With the intent of communicating a quality-driven and naturalistic philosophy of living, Nicobar was established as a brand in India in 2016, and there has been no looking back since. 

 

Taking the Indian lifestyle industry by storm, and landing a prominent spot on every list of the best homegrown brands in India, Nicobar as a brand has had quite the eventful journey. It wasn't long before the brand became synonymous with products that reflect Indian culture while also being global in their appeal. With a tropical design language, Nicobar continues to draw its inspirations from stories across the Indian Ocean. 

 

Recently, the brand graced us with its new spring/summer 2020 collection called Kanga. For those wondering what the name stands for, Kanga is a colourful fabric donned by both men and women across the African Great Lakes region. Nicobar's new collection draws its inspiration from this versatile piece of cloth that can be worn in a plethora of ways ranging from a headwrap to a skirt, and the vibrant prints it usually comes in. 

 

Well, for us, Kanga was an instant winner. The relaxed silhouettes, the breezy summer fabrics and the cool pastel palette had us frantically clicking "add to cart". And we'd want nothing more than to share this new-found love! So here we have for you, 5 unique pieces from Nicobar's Kanga Collection for both men and women, thoughtfully cherry-picked by our in-house fashion experts.
