Based in Erode, Tamil Nadu, Erode Clothing is a cultural luxury brand that blends Western silhouettes with South Indian craftsmanship. Working closely with weavers in Tamil Nadu, the brand seeks to revive the dying art of Jamakkalam weaving through collaborating with local artisans in the practice.

Jamakkalam, a type of woven fabric whose craft has been passed down through generations, recently faces a rapid decline due to lack of recognition, an increase in production costs, and the decline in the transmission to young weavers. The choice to preserve Jamakkalam is deeply personal, intertwined with societal, economic, and emotional considerations.

Uniquely contemporary heritage pieces that show the deep-rooted traditions behind their designs as well as acting as a reminder that erosion is not just limited to the physical landscape but extends to the intangible culture we risk losing if we do not act.

Society of Cloth was cultivated out of a love for cultural craft, artisan communities, and the history behind the clothes we wear everyday.

We seek to connect individuals with independent brands from around the world that that fuse generational techniques with modern design. These brands are vetted by our team for their recognition of local crafts, fair employment standards, and eco-conscious development practices.

After all, what we wear is an expression of ourselves, our curiosity about the world, our appreciation of artisanal work, and our commitment to preserve our earth and home.
