GUNAS is an independent high fashion brand with a career! Founded in 2009 by designer and animal lover Sugandh G. Agrawal, GUNAS' heart and soul scream to be the voice of animals. With an award-winning design and business background, Sugandh left a 7-year corporate career as an industrial designer at KitchenAid to start her own cruelty-free fashion label in New York. Her mission is firm and clear. Animals are not meant to be part of fashion. We can look and feel good without harming other living things. We need to connect ourselves to what is going on behind the scenes and question our actions and their impact. the
