The Almora collection is inspired by the traditional tweeds and fabrics for which Almora town is famous. Designs and patterns in tweeds were brought in by the British from Scotland in the mid nineteenth century and the cottage industry thrived in Almora and its surroundings for over a century.
Due to the growing powerloom industry in Ludhiana and the availability of cheaper products from there, the flourishing Almora tweed industry declined and there are only a handful of small cottage industries surviving to date.
Extensive research and documentation of designs and weaves in tweeds by Panchachuli is brought to you in this exclusive collection.
