KH House of Khaddar Wins Best Ready-to-Wear Collection for Sutura
New York, September 2026: KH House of Khaddar, the sustainable fashion label founded by actor and filmmaker Kamal Haasan, has received international recognition for its collection Sutura.
The label won Best Ready-to-Wear Collection at the recently held Runway 7 Fashion Awards in New York. Amritha, Design Head of KH House of Khaddar, received the award on behalf of the brand.
The honour marks an important milestone for the Indian label. It also supports its vision of taking khadi to the West.
Sutura Brings Indian Textiles to a Global Audience
KH House of Khaddar was established to present Indian textiles through a contemporary global perspective. The label focuses on the heritage and versatility of Indian textile traditions.
Moreover, its work aims to connect traditional craftsmanship with modern fashion. The recognition for Sutura further highlights this approach.
The collection was first presented internationally at New York Fashion Week in 2024. Since then, Sutura has continued to represent the label’s global design vision.
The name Sutura comes from the Latin word for “thread.” The collection explores the relationship between Indian textile traditions and contemporary design.
As a result, the collection remains rooted in its cultural origins. At the same time, it speaks to an international fashion audience.
Celebrating Khadi and Indian Craftsmanship
The Runway 7 recognition highlights the ideas behind KH House of Khaddar. The label believes Indian textiles can have relevance across international markets.
However, this global approach does not require traditional identity to be lost. Instead, the brand places Indian craftsmanship within a contemporary fashion context.
Sutura reflects this philosophy through its focus on textiles, craftsmanship and modern design. The collection therefore creates a connection between heritage and global fashion.
A Milestone for KH House of Khaddar
For Kamal Haasan’s House of Khaddar, the award represents more than recognition for a single collection. It adds to the label’s wider effort to bring Indian textiles and craftsmanship to international fashion platforms.
Furthermore, the honour demonstrates the potential of khadi within contemporary ready-to-wear fashion. It also reinforces the role of Indian textile traditions in global fashion conversations.
With Sutura, KH House of Khaddar continues to position Indian textiles through a modern design language. The Runway 7 award adds another international milestone to that journey.
