Barjis London is an award-winning Fashion & Lifestyle brand based in London. Pioneer in high- end modest fashion with a timeless and multi cultural twist. As well as a veteran in bespoke rugs. Barjis London recently diversified into interior products for the luxury homes and stylish hotels.
The business was founded in humble beginnings in the year 2000 with custom-made rugs. During the span of 23 years, it has diversified its product range in women clothing, scarves and cushions.
The Founder Barjis Chohan is a graduate from Fashion school – studying at London College of Fashion and Central St. Martins, working with the iconic Vivienne Westwood and a French house in Monte Carlo before starting her business in the year 2000. She expanded her business with her celebrated clothing line in 2011 and since then has been the pioneer in introducing high – end fashion to the modest market.
Barjis’s story of going against the traditional immigrant story is inspirational. Her decision to drop her parents dreams of venturing into medicine, in the pursuit to enter the glamorous world of high fashion has inspired many. A speech at her college introduced Barjis as a professional Motivational Speaker. Barjis speaks internationally at global conferences. The topics range from breaking the glass ceiling, motivational, embracing equity and diversity, sustainability in Fashion, how to maintain integrity and your brand ethos in a saturated fashion industry.
She is not afraid to be ‘different’ and chooses not to follow any rules in Fashion. Barjis believes that the work should speak for itself and we make our own rules as we go long!
Currently, the brand is striving towards creating products which are sustainable and do not pollute our environment and our oceans. It is easier said than done, but the goal is to work with a supply chain that shares the same values and goals.
“I want to create beautiful, sustainable work of the highest quality – which customers will treasure for life.” – Barjis Chohan – CEO, BARJIS
Recently Barjis was awarded Fashion Brand of the Year for its unique take on Fashion. The culture trip awarded Barjis: Multi Cultural brand of the year and in 2018 Barjis Chohan launched The Barjis Initiative to support creative businesses run by under represented communities and encourage creativity and enterprise at schools.
