rkivecity is a New Delhi-based research & design house driven by a deep commitment to material revival.

Rooted in repair and zero-waste remanufacturing, we breathe new life into post-consumer garments, transforming them into timeless creations that celebrate circularity and the beauty of age and time. Inspired by the artistry of age-old techniques like boro, raffoo, kantha and appreciation for natural patina, the unique character and richness develop over time, revealing a garment's journey.

Our mission is simple yet profound, to reimagine the way we see fashion by re-wearing, repairing, and reconstructing old clothes.

While we work with post-consumer waste, we also provide access to our unique supply chain by fostering collaboration through our programme remade in rkivecity.

Remade in rkivecity is our collaboration program offering the world access to our supply chain to drive social and environmental impact through meaningful partnerships.
