Be it jeans, shirts, jackets, or T-shirts, Killer apparel has always kept up with global trends, remaining in itself experimental, sexy and downright cool.

No wonder then that today Killer is one of the largest selling denim brands in India. And upping its style quotient even more is its unique association with two of the most prestigious names in fashion. Lakme Fashion Week and Narendra Kumar Ahmad.
