After spending her final year of school studying in Milan, the designer returned to her home country, newly inspired by the rich cultural heritage she remembers being surrounded by as a child.

She recalled how, as a kid, she wasn't so taken by museums or art, but coming back to India after this experience, she missed that Italian cultural energy. She adds, <em>‘but of course India has an extremely rich cultural heritage, so I decided to start exploring Indian arts more intentionally through my work.</em>'</p><p> </p><p><img decoding=”async” class=”size-full wp-image-1195062 lazyload” src=”data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7″ alt=”taarini anand on creating whimsical menswear inspired by indian art and culture – 3″ width=”818″ height=”1022″ data-src=”https://static.designboom.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/taarini-anand-designboom-19.jpg” data-srcset=”https://static.designboom.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/taarini-anand-designboom-19.jpg 818w, https://static.designboom.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/taarini-anand-designboom-19-800×1000.jpg 800w, https://static.designboom.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/taarini-anand-designboom-19-768×960.jpg 768w” data-sizes=”auto” loading=”lazy”/><br/>Taarini Anand SS26.

She raves about Varad Bang's recent installation, <em>The Weight of Love</em>, inspired by Wong Kar-Wai's film, <em>In the Mood for Love.</em> As evident in the Manar jacket, her references span painting, poetry, music, and architecture.</p><p> </p><p>Anand's last collection was inspired by the Ajanta and Ellora caves, UNESCO heritage sites in the state of Maharashtra, about a four-hour drive from Mumbai where the designer practices. <em>‘It just felt so interesting and captivating to me that we made a whole collection out of it!'</em> she exclaims. With a wonderment in her eyes, she recalls seeing the caves in real life, explaining how they were built over two thousand years ago without the use of contemporary construction tools. <em>‘It's kind of a mystery,'</em> she muses about the technological capacity they had in that period, <em>‘they've got really intricate carvings and it's incredible.'</em></p><p> </p><p><img decoding=”async” class=”size-full wp-image-1195063 lazyload” src=”data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7″ alt=”taarini anand on creating whimsical menswear inspired by indian art and culture – 4″ width=”818″ height=”1022″ data-src=”https://static.designboom.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/taarini-anand-designboom-20.jpg” data-srcset=”https://static.designboom.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/taarini-anand-designboom-20.jpg 818w, https://static.designboom.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/taarini-anand-designboom-20-800×1000.jpg 800w, https://static.designboom.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/taarini-anand-designboom-20-768×960.jpg 768w” data-sizes=”auto” loading=”lazy”/><br/>Taarini Anand SS26.

Colorful handknitted pieces are the core of the brand, a craft that is practiced by Anand's mother and grandmother, who play an active role in developing and testing samples for the collection. <em>‘I work very closely with them and we also try to push the technicalities within hand knitting.'</em> She goes on to elaborate on complex techniques like jacquard and intarsia, which use various colors and types of yarn to create one pattern, and how they are continuously working together to explore what's possible with the method.</p><p> </p></article></div></div><div class=”fullwidth-image”> <img decoding=”async” src=”data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7″ width=”1800″ height=”1000″ alt=”taarini-anand-designboom-fullWidth-01″ data-src=”https://static.designboom.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/taarini-anand-designboom-fullWidth-01.jpg” loading=”lazy” class=” lazyload”/><div class=”layout-box”><div class=”page-content”><p>Taarini Anand FW25/26.

On this production system, Anand elaborates, <em>‘in a village you have maybe five, ten women who are knitting. Then a little bit away, there'll be another tiny village and there's another five, ten women who are knitting. So there's usually a bit of a hierarchy. Then there'll be a master knitter who will call these women to a more central area to give them the work.

On the history of this practice, Anand shares that<em> ‘hand knitting is a very functional, homely practice. It was done by mostly women and girls because they live in a cold place and need more layers. Even now, if you go to remote areas within the hills, you will find these ladies hand spinning their yarn with the wool directly from the sheep they herd themselves and spin on their own.'</em></p><p> </p></article></div></div><div class=”fullwidth-image”> <img decoding=”async” src=”data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7″ width=”1800″ height=”1000″ alt=”taarini-anand-designboom-fullWidth-02″ data-src=”https://static.designboom.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/taarini-anand-designboom-fullWidth-02.jpg” loading=”lazy” class=” lazyload”/><div class=”layout-box”><div class=”page-content”><p>Taarini Anand FW25/26.

The way the garment is produced is evident not just in the weaves, but in the way she presents the collection. <em>‘We had a show earlier this year. For the start of it I had my grandmom knitting on the runway as the models were walking because that's how it started for me.'</em> She adds that before the show, she had played the chattering, gossiping, and lively voices of the ladies that come together to produce the garments themselves. <em>‘It was just very nice to have some aspects of all the people who contribute to the actual piece be present there and at the same time.'</em></p><p> </p><div class=”pikker”><div class=”pikker-badge”> <span>1/9</span></div><div class=”pikker-slider”><div class=”pikk”><img class=”lazyload” data-src=”https://www.designboom.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/taarini-anand-designboom-05-667×1000.jpg” width=”667″ height=”1000″ alt=”Taarini Anand FW 26/27.
