Lakmē Fashion Week x FDCI presents sustainable statement bottle for its latest edition in collaboration with AK|OK by Anamika Khanna
AK|OK Anamika Khanna reimagines everyday hydration as a canvas for poetic expression, rooted in conscious design

As Lakmē Fashion Week x FDCI returns for its March season, the platform once again brings together the country’s most influential designers, brands, and creative voices in a celebration of innovation, craft, and forward-thinking fashion.
Over the years, the platform has evolved beyond the runway to champion conversations around responsible and conscious creation.
Continuing this vision, the upcoming edition strengthens its sustainability commitment with a thoughtfully designed reusable bottle in collaboration with AK|OK Anamika Khanna.
Reinforcing its ongoing effort to reduce single-use plastic, this season’s bottle initiative merges environmental responsibility with artistic storytelling, transforming a daily essential into a meaningful design object.
AK|OK Anamika Khanna reimagines everyday hydration as a canvas for poetic expression, rooted in conscious design. Inspired by the collection’s philosophy of finding beauty in the misplaced, the bottle’s print translates hand-painted imperfections, asymmetry, and gentle distortions into an organic visual narrative like a solitary flower growing defiantly through concrete. Fluid brushstrokes, layered textures, and bold yet softened hues echo AK|OK’s billowing silhouettes and experimental compositions, creating a tactile extension of the brand’s design language.
Crafted with an eco-friendly vision and minimal packaging, the reusable bottle embodies sustainability not only in material but in message. Scars, irregularities, and disruptions are reframed as marks of authenticity, celebrating belonging, connection, and creative continuity values that lie at the heart of AK|OK’s identity.
By distributing these limited-edition bottles to designers, models, media, and backstage teams, Lakmē Fashion Week x FDCI further strengthens its mission to encourage conscious consumption across the fashion ecosystem.
Over the years, the reusable bottle initiative has emerged as a powerful symbol of the platform’s sustainability journey, demonstrating how small, intentional shifts can create lasting impact. With refill stations across the venue and a continued emphasis on mindful practices, the 26th edition reaffirms that fashion can lead with both purpose and imagination.
This collaboration transforms a functional object into a collectible piece of art merging Indian craftsmanship with contemporary global design, and redefining utility as an intimate, optimistic statement.
