The designer

Meet Charu.

Charulata Vyas grew up among fabrics in India. Her path ran through Tel Aviv, Paris, where she sold bags, and New York, where she sold clothes. Urbanic Tribe is where those worlds meet: clean Japanese lines, the warmth of tribal craft, and clothes cut to move with every body.

Two worlds, one wardrobe.

As a child, Charu watched her mother wake early, finish the housework and give the rest of the day to making things. Her love of making came from her mother. Her love of style came from both her parents.
