Crish Panchal, Director of The Mango Tree and Jack Tree, originally hailed from the clothing industry. It has always been her dream and desire to go back to her roots and this dream became a reality when she and her friend Upasna Satwani came up with the idea of launching Karat, a chic ethnic and fusion wear studio.

Karat is a women’s clothing studio that contains a fabulous range of ethnic, formal, semi-formal, indo-western and contemporary clothing. In addition to that it carries accessories, handbags and an intricate collection of jewellery. Its kurtis and tunics carry unusual Indian prints and modern cuts and in this lies Karat’s appeal. The charming studio also offers incredibly reasonably priced eastern and western wear that have strong North Indian influences.

“We believe that there is a formidable demand for North Indian clothing that has not yet been fulfilled in Colombo and therefore we hope to satisfy this hunger. Karat clothing is on par with the latest fashion trends in India and we aim to provide the latest trends and therefore the studio is filled with up to date clothing that matches present styles,” said Chrish.

A very important feature of Karat is that only limited articles of each style of clothing are available, ensuring that it is highly unlikely that a woman sporting Karat outfits will run into anyone in the same ensemble!

Karat also has a rich collection of silver jewellery infused with Tanjore art and semi precious stones, pearls, glass pieces and gold. The name of the studio, Karat, signifies that the studio is as precious and exclusive as a golden karat. Its interiors are decorated with Mughal architecture and paintings.

Karat is a must visit store and is guaranteed to win everybody’s heart.
