There is a certain alchemy to Chola—a quiet, assured confidence that doesn’t clamor for attention, yet reshapes the way we think about contemporary Indian design. Under the intuitive hand of Sohaya Misra, the label has become a study in restraint: silhouettes that whisper, textures that breathe, and a philosophy rooted deeply in the elegance of “less is more.”
Chola’s universe begins with thoughtful materials. Recycled cottons, post-consumer fabrics, and free-cutting techniques come together in a kind of mindful choreography—one that honours form without creating waste, and prioritises movement over rigidity. This is clothing that feels lived-in yet architectural; pared-back yet quietly avant-garde.
Sohaya’s asymmetric lines, fluid layers, and sculptural drapes speak to a woman who moves through the world with ease and intention. Each piece carries an unmistakable edge—subtle, intelligent, and utterly contemporary—inviting its wearer to explore proportion, volume, and personal expression without ever feeling weighed down.
From its early debut at the Vintage Garden Trunk Show in 2015 to the runways of Lakmé Fashion Week barely a year later, Chola’s rise has been nothing short of remarkable. What drew us in at Canvas & Weaves was not just the craftsmanship or the silhouettes, but the conviction: the sense that clothing can be both art and attitude, both comfort and complexity.
Chola is more than a label—it is a mood, a movement, a way of dressing that embraces the beauty of the unforced. We are proud to present a brand that embodies thoughtful luxury and the courage to redefine simplicity on its own terms.
