Specializing in khaadi, cotton & muslin, her eco-friendly designs have appeared in Vogue & on many Fashion ramps, celebrating women’s diversity & wearable fashion. HUMAIR KHAN is the top most respected designer-wear brand house in today’s Bangladesh. The journey starts in 1989 when our women had little option but to wear sarees from across the border. Humaira Khan as a visionary, developed a brand
reflecting the traditions of Bengali heritage, blending craftsmanship with a contemporary vocabulary, and initially, the brand was ANOKHI. Her understanding of designer wear had always evolved around the concept of women empowerment, so Anokhi became so popular that for years after years our ladies of all ages and sizes started to rely on Anokhi for festivity wear as well as for daily casual options. After dictating the industry for 30 years, Humaira Khan decided to come up with the concept of ANIKINI in the year 2019. To create awareness on issues like biodiversity and pollution, Anikini started promoting the pure form of fabric, blended in traditional craftsmanship, and successfully carries on a new classicism. Today this sub-brand is renowned for its distinctive use of natural tones, pure fabrics, and intricate embroideries maintaining a gloriously rich Bengali aesthetic. Since HUMAIRA KHAN had always been committed to patronizing craftspeople, she made a significant impact in creating employment heavily focused on underdeveloped and often neglected communities. Over the years she touched so many corners of enthusiasts that finally had to respond to the rather popular demand of bringing all the exuberant under the name brand of her own. “Humaira Khan herself is an institution” - over the years that is a widely believed realization amongst the people that had an opportunity to work with her. So she never had to wonder where to pick a new talent from rather a workforce always remains enthusiastically awaiting! That is how starting at her garage corner with three people and today in 33 years, her name brand is a company of hundreds of employees if not thousands. ANOKHI:
