Weaves from the Northeast

The Nomi – Weavers Nest offers handcrafted jewellery, textiles and ethnic wear from the Northeast made by local artisans.

Nomi was a talented girl from Assam who wanted to design and promote ethnic and fusion wear for women and men using the Northeast’s weaves. However, she passed away. So, to fulfil her dream, her brother, Sushant Phukan, founded The Nomi to boost the livelihoods of artisans and weavers from the Northeast. “We aspire to connect the rich heritage and creativity of the region to diverse markets across the globe with sustainable fashion,” he says.

Phukan is a former techie. He has now devoted himself full-time to promoting The Nomi. He has a stall at Dastkar’s Gali-e-Khas in Delhi’s Andheria Mor.
