The label has an expressive direction driven by the urge to be different and extending individuality beyond comfort zones by experimenting and exploring new material to create a juxtapose dialogue about imperfection and challenging the status quo. ADK finds its identity by creating a dialogue that impacts the creative culture pushing the boundaries forward and constantly challenging cultures.

They hope to create and inspire, to support our community in this tough moment and to do the same by minimizing the impact of the COVID-19 virus in our country.

This is instrumental in creating necessary products keeping sustainability in mind.

“Taking our waste fabrics from our old seasons and creating facemask for your safety. Our motive is to make the environment less impactful and be more selfless with each other. We created facemask, which is easily washable, easily wearable as one size can fit all and have colors that bring joy that we all need.
