Founded in 2019 by India Hicks, ILH Handcrafted blossomed from humble beginnings—a dream, a sewing machine, and a vision to empower people to care for themselves and the Earth.
Driven by a holistic approach to wellness—mind, body, and spirit—India’s creations inspire comfort, joy, and mindful living.
After years in the luxury fashion industry, India witnessed two profound challenges: the confidence struggles many women face in what they wear and the devastating impact of fast fashion on our planet. With a deep desire to make a difference, she began crafting one-of-a-kind garments that nurture both the wearer and Mother Earth.
Rest a while and get inspired.
At her home studio in picturesque Cornwall, UK, India handcrafts every piece with care and intention. Her signature robes—inspired by the elegance of English Regency florals and the precision of Japanese garment construction—are made exclusively from mid-century vintage and reclaimed fabrics. These stunning heritage materials, saved from going to landfill, transform into timeless kimono-style robes that envelop you in a comforting, sustainable hug.
Whether you’re brewing your morning cuppa, taking a woodland stroll, or heading out for dinner with friends, an ILH Handcrafted robe is designed to be your constant companion. Each garment is a testament to India’s mission: creating beauty that uplifts the spirit while protecting the planet.
India’s passion for storytelling extends beyond her craft. Her book, Becoming: A Very Long Walk & The Awakening of a Woman, delves into her personal journey, encouraging readers to embrace self-care and connection with the Earth.
