Story behind Kaftans By Studio J

Kaftans by Studio J is the vision of Soniyah Sidhu and Kuljinder Kaur of Jinder's, Singapore. Created with the belief that every woman deserves clothing that feels as good as it looks, the brand brings together effortless style, comfort, and confidence for women of all sizes.

Designed for everyday wear, lunches and brunches, work, holidays, festive occasions, and celebrations, our kaftans feature flowing silhouettes that drape beautifully and move with ease. Crafted from breathable, feel-good fabrics with soft linings, they offer all-day comfort while combining designer-inspired aesthetics with practical wearability.

At Kaftans by Studio J, we believe fashion should never feel restrictive. It should be effortless, inclusive, and empowering , helping women feel comfortable in their own skin while looking beautifully put together.

Meet The Founders

For over 30 years, Kuljinder Kaur and Soniyah Sidhu have been helping women discover fashion that makes them look and feel their best. As the founders of Jinder's and Studio J in Singapore, they have built a reputation for combining timeless elegance with a deep understanding of fit, comfort, and personal style.

Drawing on decades of experience dressing women of all ages, sizes, and lifestyles, they created Kaftans by Studio J to bring together everything they believe fashion should be—comfortable, confidence-boosting, versatile, and effortlessly elegant.
