26 The RUNGOLEE STORY
Rungolee founder and designer Anjali
Kamra grew up among a kaleidoscope of color and culture in Calcutta, India.
As a young girl, she used her mother’s sewing
machine to make clothes from vintage sarees and any scrap fabric she could get her hands on. She dreamt of creating her own collection one day.
Moving to New York with her husband gave Anjali the
chance to realize her dream. She attended FIT and earned her fashion degree.
Anjali launched Rungolee in 2007. She named the line
after the Indian folk-art “Rangoli”-intricate geometric patterns painted on a courtyard floor or front door. Stemming from the word “rang” which means color, it is a celebration of pattern, color and individuality.
Since the first collection, Rungolee has set a new
standard for global chic couture. With direct connections to the finest couture artisans on the Indian subcontinent, Rungolee employs some of the most talented beaders, weavers, sewers and designers.
Today, Anjali travels the world seeking inspiration in
every window, gallery and market she encounters, from the souks of Morocco to Paris’ Champs Elysees.
