After years of working with recycled kantha, sari cottons and silks, one question has consistently landed in our inbox:
“Where do you get your base layers for styling?”
Well… we created our own!
Introducing our new Bohemian Basics range - designed to sit effortlessly alongside your colourful one-of-a-kind Renew pieces. Think elevated essentials you can mix, layer and live in, whether they’re paired with bold kantha prints or worn simply on their own.
Familiar silhouettes, reimagined
This first Bohemian Basics release includes five styles inspired by some of our most loved designs:
Boheme Jumpsuit – a softer, more flowy take on our kantha Boheme, with extra drape and movement
Flow Robe – lightweight with a gorgeous woven texture and endlessly wearable
Cami Top – an easy layering staple, and, it's reversible!
Dreamer Top – relaxed and versatile, made to be worn on or off the shoulder
Palazzo Pants – still that wide leg we all love, but with a more tailored fit through the waist and hips and a flattering wide fold-over waistband
While the shapes may feel familiar, the experience of wearing them is different. The fabrics drape in a way that kantha and silk simply can’t, creating a smoother, more dynamic silhouette across every piece.
Thoughtfully chosen fabrics
For this range, we’ve introduced five new fabrics, including LENZING™ ECOVERO™ and organic cotton, chosen for their softness, breathability and lower environmental impact. The result is fabrics that feel gentle against the skin and move beautifully with the body.
They’re genuinely soft enough to sleep in… and we won’t judge if you wear them three days in a row (seriously, we do, no shame).
Designed to mix and match
Bohemian Basics were created to work with your Renew wardrobe, not replace it. Every piece is designed to layer effortlessly with recycled kantha, sari cotton, silk and pashmina styles, or to stand confidently on its own as an everyday essential.
We’ve released the range in four timeless colourways: maroon, navy, olive and black.
Easy neutrals that ground bolder pieces and give you infinite styling options.

A new partnership, the same values
This range also marks our first collaboration with a family-owned business in Bali, Indonesia, and we couldn’t be prouder of the team we’re working with there. As always, relationships, ethics and care sit at the centre of everything we create.
We are intentionally crafting the Bohemian Basics collection in small batches with our Bali partners to prevent waste; no clothing goes to landfill here!
Fit notes before you shop
Because these fabrics behave differently to kantha and silk, some fits and measurements differ from their kantha counterparts. We can’t stress this enough: please take the time to check the measurements on each product page so you can find the best fit for you.
A new kind of everyday favourite
Bohemian Basics are designed to be worn on repeat. They’re the pieces you'll reach for without thinking. The ones that travel well, layer easily, and support the more expressive pieces in your wardrobe.
We are buzzing about this range here at Kantha HQ, and we can’t wait to see how you style them and make them your own.
