According to a PTI report: The company has announced an exclusive partnership with Aditya Birla Group’s Livaeco brand. Last year W had launched a new line of Harit Khadi products styled by the company.

Manohar Samuel, Senior President, Aditya Birla Group told PTI: “We are launching our newest offering Livaeco exclusively with W, which has created a collection that embodies our focus on sustainability and high fashion to delight the customers”.
