Hailing all the way from Kathmandu in the Himalayas, Mishu Shrestha is the first ever Nepalese designer to take part in London Fashion Week. Emerging out of covid pandemic, designer Mishu Shrestha wants her customer to focus on the beauty of life & humanity. Giving back is key and culture preservation through textile craftsmanship is what’s driving the brand MISHUS forward into the future, with the aim to touch the global audiences with a unique take on “Himalayan Chic”.


The first international ready-to-wear collection is inspired by silhouettes of leaves, traditional weaving patterns, and motives. The designs are simple yet exquisitely crafted using sustainably sourced refined cashmere, a mixture of cashmere and Nepalese silk, hand-woven silk, georgette silk, and eco responsible denim which contains 35% viscose sourced from Asia Pacific Rayon (APR), the first fully integrated viscose producer in Asia from sustainable plantation to fashion.
All MISHUS cashmere and silk fabrics are hand woven, handcrafted with Swarovski and threads embellished against vibrant spring summer colours.
