Last updated: September 2026. Quick answer: Ethnic-fusion kurtas, dresses and co-ord sets made in India from homegrown cotton, in sizes S to 2XL.

The Nilkamal is the everyday office kurti, deep teal cotton with a square neckline, white stripe motifs and side slits. Structured enough for the boardroom, easy enough for a full day. The Ruby Raga is for the days that call for more, a deep maroon ikat weave on a structured collar with an A-line silhouette that flatters every figure, the kind of Indo-Western kurta that makes people ask where you shop. The Ibrik moves from Monday meetings to Friday evenings in warm camel, with balloon sleeves, a shirt placket, a knee length and quiet ethnic-fusion detail. The Gulshan is the festive note, a soft blush pink halter top with a matching bottom, for evenings that deserve to be remembered.

All clothing is offered in sizes S to 2XL, with the Gulshan Co-ord Set in S to XL, made by hand in India.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are HOF kurtis suitable for office wear?

Yes. The Nilkamal Short Kurti and the Ruby Raga Collar Kurta are cut for professional settings, with structured silhouettes, considered fabrics and Indo-Western detail that reads polished in any workplace. The Ibrik Shirt Dress does the same job in a dress, with a shirt placket and a knee length that need no explaining at a desk.

Is the Ibrik Shirt Dress a kurta or a dress?

Technically a shirt dress, but it styles like a long kurta. Warm camel, balloon sleeves, a shirt placket and a knee length. It is the piece to reach for when you want one thing that takes you from a morning meeting to an evening out without a change of clothes.

What fabrics are used?

The Nilkamal is a breathable homegrown cotton. The Ruby Raga is an ikat weave, a traditional handcrafted textile with the pattern woven into the cloth rather than printed on top. The Ibrik Shirt Dress is a structured cotton blend that holds its shape through a full day.

What sizes are available?

S, M, L, XL and 2XL across the Nilkamal, the Ruby Raga and the Ibrik. The Gulshan Co-ord Set is offered in S to XL. If you fall between sizes, size up, since HOF fabrics have minimal stretch and a slightly larger fit drapes better.

Do HOF kurtis have pockets?

Not currently. The Nilkamal has side slits, which give the same ease of movement, but none of the styles are cut with pockets. Product Details on each product page lists the full specification.

How should I care for ethnic-fusion clothing?

Hand wash in cold water with a mild detergent, or use a gentle machine cycle in a mesh bag. Dry in shade. Iron on the reverse at low heat, never directly over the ikat weave or detailed fabric.
