Growing up between Africa and India, our founder, Arjun, has had exposure to contrasting cultures all his life. It was through stories of home that his identity and sense of belonging was forged. Wanting to apply this personal experience to his passion for clothing led him to create do;be – a brand built at the intersection of doing and being.

do;be aims to bring history and pop culture together to create a unique take on everyday wear. Each piece draws inspiration from the past, using folklore and mythology to bring these stories to the street.

The collection featured here takes inspiration from two great empires, the Mughals and the Rajputs, who together have had a substantial impact on our culture today. Combining high quality contemporary fabrics with historical motifs drawn from the art and objects of that time, each piece tells its own story, connecting the past to the present.
