About this collection
I don't believe in theory-only classes because fashion is a craft you learn with your hands. In my studio, we swap boring lectures for real stitching time, fabric identification, and over 35 types of hand embroidery on actual machines. You won't just learn to sketch; you will learn how to source fabrics, price your work, and manage clients, just like I do at Anthariya every day.
Learn the Craft, Not Just the Theory
Fashion isn't just about trends for me. It is about stories, quality, and the soul of a garment. I started this academy because I wanted to pass on what I have learned from years of working with clients. My goal is to help you find your footing in the world of ethnic wear.
What You Will Master
- Pattern Making & Stitching: Basics of blouses, kurthis, and skirts.
- Embroidery: Hands-on training in 35+ Indian hand embroidery techniques, including Aari and Zardosi styles.
- Fabric Guru: Learn to source, identify, and handle over 50 types of fabrics. No more guessing which delicate silk can handle heavy work.
- Boutique Business: Learn the reality of running a label—vendor sourcing, client management, pricing strategies, and even how to handle your staff and social media.
Why Train at Anthariya?
I do not offer online classes because practical skills require direct supervision. You need to touch the fabric and operate the machine to really understand the work. My batches are immersive, held at our Nagarbhavi studio, and designed to give you a clear path forward.
Real World Experience
- Guaranteed Internship: Every student gets an internship at my studio. You need to see how a real boutique operates, handle real clients, and meet tight deadlines.
- Professional Portfolio: We end the course with a professional photoshoot of your final designed garment, giving you a strong start for your own brand.
This is for anyone with passion. Whether you want to launch your own ethnic label or simply master Aari embroidery, I am here to help you get started.
