Welcome to SonuHenry® – the home of a bold new luxury lifestyle fashion brand. Combining timeless British minimalism with Indian inspired creativity. SonuHenry is more than a label: it’s a vision to build a cross-cultural brand that will last for centuries.
About the Founder
Hello, I am SonuHenry, the founder of the SonuHenry luxury fashion brand.
Fashion has been a part of my life since childhood. My father worked as a machinist of men’s and women’s jackets, and I would often accompany him to understand the fashion environment. This early exposure ignited a passion that has grown into a lifelong mission: to create the next big global luxury lifestyle brand.
I am a fashion design graduate from the University of the Arts London (London College of Fashion). Over the years, I’ve gained experience in fashion retail and developed a creative, business-minded approach to branding and design.
Currently, I balance part-time work while self-funding my brand development. My long-term focus is building SonuHenry through strategic licensing partnerships with reputable business organisations, creating a model that generates residual income and builds lasting brand equity.
I live in Hackney, London - one of the city’s most creative and diverse boroughs - which continues to inspire me daily.
The Meaning of SonuHenry
I was born “Herminder" (meaning “Temple of God”) but changed my name by Deed Poll to “Sonu Henry" to reflect both my Indian and British heritage.
Sonu meaning: Golden (my lifelong family nickname).
Henry Meaning: House Ruler.
SonuHenry meaning Together: “SonuHenry” means “Golden House Ruler."
The name represents my dual identity, combining tradition with modernity, and it underpins the brand philosophy of blending cultures into luxury design.
Founder’s Values & Philosophy
I believe in God in all faiths and hold the view that while “money comes and goes,” true legacy comes from building something that lasts beyond our lifetime.
“SonuHenry” - is built on a clear business philosophy:
Equality
Ensuring equal status, rights, and opportunities for everyone.
Fairness
Promoting impartial, transparent, and just practices.
Diversity
Valuing cultural richness, inclusion, and varied perspectives.
These principles, inspired by Sikh and Zoroastrian traditions, will guide every partnership and decision in building SonuHenry into a sustainable global brand.
Founder’s Interests and Inspirations
I draw inspiration from both the UK and India.
- Music: Punjabi rap, English rap, Punjabi folk, Geet and Ghazals, Hindi love songs, Bollywood and Hollywood soundtracks.
- Sports: Snooker, Table Tennis, Badminton, Tennis and Golf.
- Design: British and Indian luxury vintage furniture, and luxury flowers, luxury and antique cars, and British-Indian cross-cultural architecture.
- Lifestyle: Indian gold, Arabian fragrances, British, Indian, Italian, and Japanese cuisines.
- Reading: Fashion cultures, fashion branding, corporate finance, investment banking, M&A, and business ethics.
This fusion of cultures and interests reflects the SonuHenry aesthetic: “classic westernwear fused with minimalist British-Indian inspired patterns and luxury detailing.”
The Brand Opportunity
Registered Trademark: UK Trademark No: UK00004243192 (Class 25 – clothing, footwear, headwear). Future registrations are planned for Classes 14 (jewellery, watches), 9 (eyewear), and 3 (fragrances), with additional registrations in India via the Madrid Protocol System and internationally.
Unique Identity: The lion logo, symbolizing strength, fearlessness, and heritage, resonates strongly within Sikh and British-Indian communities (“Singh” = “lion”) while also appealing globally as a luxury symbol.
Consumer Appeal: Customers often connect with animals as brand representations, and the lion gives SonuHenry an instantly recognizable and powerful identity that aligns with luxury market trends.
