Our story
Salt Studio was born from a simple yet powerful idea: fashion should be both expressive and intentional. Founded in the heart of Kochi by entrepreneur John and designer Diya John, Salt is more than a label — it is a movement in modern Indian fashion.
By blending the richness of heritage with the pulse of contemporary design, Salt creates clothing that empowers women to embrace their individuality while staying rooted in tradition.
The Soul of Salt
At the heart of Salt is Diya John, Creative Director and Co-Founder. A designer with a passion for storytelling, Diya believes every garment should carry an emotion, a memory, and a voice.
With her keen eye for detail and deep appreciation of Indian craftsmanship, she reimagines ethnic wear for the modern woman — versatile, graceful, and timeless.
Our Design Philosophy
Salt’s aesthetic is inspired by the world around us — the elegance of nature, the strength of architecture, the layers of history, and the beauty of fine art.
Each collection is thoughtfully designed and meticulously constructed, offering a spectrum of styles: from statement party wear and effortless everyday pieces to unique occasion ensembles. Every piece tells a story — whether it’s a sari redefined with bold, modern cuts or a fusion silhouette adorned with hand embroidery.
