Zahke is more than a fashion house—it’s a movement. We bring together emerging Indian designers who are redefining tradition with modern silhouettes, creating conscious fashion that resonates with a global audience.
Rooted in sustainability, we honor India’s rich artisanal heritage while embracing contemporary design, ensuring that every piece tells a story of craftsmanship, empowerment, and impact.
WHAT ZAHKE MEANS
Zahke is more than a name—it’s a tribute to the next generation. It’s a blend of the names of one of our founder’s daughters, representing heritage, identity, and a bridge between cultures.
Zahke symbolizes women who are bold, diverse, free-thinking, and powerful. It embodies the future—one where fashion empowers, respects traditions, and paves the way for change.
This is the essence of Zahke: a brand with a soul, a purpose, and a mission to transform fashion into a force for good.

our journey
The story of Zahke is one of collaboration, heritage, and innovation.
Where It All Began
Our journey started with Bougainvillea, founded by Sanket Bhansali, a brand dedicated to slow fashion and sustainable craftsmanship. Bougainvillea remains a core part of Zahke, continuing to bring conscious fashion to Australia and New Zealand.
Bridging Continents & Cultures
Zahke was brought to life by Gunjan and Joha, two visionaries with a shared love for sustainability and ethical fashion.
Gunjan, deeply rooted in India’s textile heritage, brings an unwavering passion for preserving artisanal craftsmanship.
Joha, with her Colombian background, blends cultural vibrancy with a global perspective on inclusivity and sustainability.
Together, they envisioned Zahke as more than a brand—it’s a platform for change.
The Future of Zahke
Zahke is a collective effort—a fusion of artisans, designers, and conscious consumers shaping the future of fashion. Our story is still unfolding, and we invite you to be part of this journey. Every piece you wear is a step towards a more ethical, empowered, and sustainable world.
