A Kantha Archive

A Kantha Archive: Second Life is a celebration of renewal of giving forgotten fabrics another chance to breathe, move, and tell their story. Each piece is crafted from vintage Kantha textiles, hand-stitched over decades by women artisans whose layered threads carry memories of daily life, resilience, and quiet beauty.

Through this collaboration, Erica Kim × World of Crow bring a contemporary lens to these timeworn textiles  preserving their imperfections, honoring their history, and reshaping them into silhouettes that feel effortless, modern, and alive again.

Every garment in this collection is truly one of a kind. Its faded hues, tiny mends, sun-softened texture, and irregular patterns remind us that beauty lives in continuity, not perfection. Second Life is both a return and a beginning  an ode to the enduring spirit of craft, slow making, and conscious creation.
