About Custom Bridal & Occasion Wear for Women
Every Piece Tells a Story
For me, every saree or blouse is about your story, not just some design. Sometimes it’s about weaving in a family brooch, sometimes it’s about keeping things simple because you say, "thumba heavy work beda" (don’t want very heavy work). I listen, then start sketching till it feels just right.
The Blouse - My Forte
Blouses are my playground. I believe a good one can totally change your whole look. Whether you want a temple jewelry inspired blouse with red and green Kundans or just a clean, minimal vibe, I make sure it matches your saree and fits you — nimge suit aagbeku (it should suit you).
- Mainly do hand-embroidered blouses, with zardosi, dori, resham (silk thread)
- Use proper finishing: cut work, scallops, custom latkans
- No sticking, only sturdy hand-work, so you can re-wear and mix with other sarees
Sarees, Lehengas & More
Not just blouses. I also design custom sarees (can dye to your shade and hand-embroider), dreamy lehengas, gowns for Christian weddings, and reception outfits. If you have an old saree, we can give new life to the pallu with embroidery.
For You & Your Family
I love doing coordinated family wedding outfits - matching or contrast, up to you. Everyone gets to feel like they belong to the same story.
How We’ll Work Together
You talk, I listen. We discuss, I sketch. We pick fabrics, I do the work. Fittings till it’s perfect. I’ll also help with styling tips, so you feel confident in your outfit.

My Story
Hey, Rashmi here from Arulaa. Sarees, blouses, every piece we make has some story behind it - not just fabric, but memories stitched in. Sometimes it’s a bride’s muhurtham, sometimes an actor’s big day. I once made a pallu work matching a client’s golden brooch, she went mad with happiness! (Aagide, she was so thrilled!) Ten years with some clients, that’s the best part. From Bangalore to UAE, it’s about heart and craft, always.
