Loops by LJ
Introducing Latika Jagwani, the creative mind behind Loops and a fashion design graduate from Pearl Academy, Mumbai. She’s a 25 year old textile enthusiast based in the city of Lucknow. The thought of combining colors, textures, and seamlessly blending the modern with the traditional in her designs is what gets her heart racing!
The idea of Loops occurred right after the times of the pandemic, where everything took shape virtually. From learning the intricacies of rug making through video chats to navigating the uncharted territory of finding skilled weavers, the journey appeared daunting in the beginning but sure was like an exhilarating treasure hunt!
The pandemic became a transformative period for the tiny idea that was Loops, allowing them to find their true calling and utilize the time creatively.Far from mass production, Loops aims to offer a tailored service to those who understand and enjoy a high-end product, where a month’s production time contains a story of ageless culture.
Loops is about creating jaw-dropping art pieces that will leave you swooning. Along with their strong texture game – it's like a cozy hug for your feet! The brand realised how rugs and other home decor pieces could become tactile paintings. This textile art allowed us to push past 2D limitations and bring a physical object into space to create warmth, comfort and joy.
In a short span of just one year, Loops has left its artistic mark on the world, capturing the attention of magazines and renowned architects. The journey has been nothing short of exhilarating, and we surely envision a bright future with endless possibilities for the brand.
