This bespoke maroon tuxedo is what I call a showstopper, perfect for a grand reception. I designed this for a groom in the UAE, focusing on creating a royal look with intricate hand embroidery using zardosi, saadi, and crystals that cascade down the shoulders. The three-piece construction ensures a sharp, structured fit that feels as good as it looks.
This is the classic South Indian groom's 'Muhurtam' look, made with pure silk. I designed this custom Jodhpuri-style kurta and 'kacche' (dhoti) to feel both traditional and elegant. The focus was on subtle, clean embroidery on the collar and cuffs, paired with a beautiful 'shalya' (shawl) with pure zari for that perfect ceremonial finish.
For this client, we wanted to tell a story of romance. I took a classic white three-piece suit and turned it into a canvas, hand-painting bold red roses that climb up the lapel. This is a great example of how we can take a simple idea and create something truly unique and personal for your big day.
Here’s a little insight into my world. I’m explaining the different fabrics and construction techniques that go into making the perfect suit. From choosing the right PW quality fabric made in India to imported Japanese textiles for that amazing fall, every detail matters to me. It's not just the outer fabric; it's the canvas, felts, and linings inside that create that crisp, 'sakkat' fit.
It was a joy to design this coordinated Deepavali outfit for the wonderful couple, Tharun and Sonal. For his off-white silk kurta, I added delicate, asymmetrical gold embroidery on the shoulder. This created a beautiful harmony with her matching saree, telling a cohesive story for their first festival together as a married couple.
This black bandhgala suit is all about understated royalty. I used rich black fabric and embellished it with intricate, dense gold zardosi work. The design flows from the shoulders down the sleeves and along the hem, creating a powerful silhouette perfect for a sangeet or reception.
The fitting is where the magic really comes together. Here I am with Tharun Sudhir, making sure every detail of his custom 'Muhurtam' outfit is perfect. From the drape of the 'kacche' to the fit of the kurta, I am hands-on to ensure absolute comfort and a flawless look.
About this collection
Whether it is a custom tuxedo or a traditional Muhurtam ensemble, I focus heavily on what is inside the garment—the canvas, felts, and linings—that actually makes a suit sit right. It is not just about the outer fabric, but the internal construction that gives you that crisp, lasting fit.
My design philosophy is simple: your outfit should be a reflection of who you are. Whether you are looking for a classic three-piece suit for a grand reception or a traditional silk ensemble for your wedding ceremony, we ensure every detail is intentional. We specialize in Indo-Western fusion, blending modern silhouettes with traditional Indian handwork like Zardosi, Saadi, and custom embroidery.
We do not just select fabric; we look at the fall and feel. For suits, we prioritize internal architecture—using horsehair canvas and structured chest pieces so the garment holds its shape. For traditional wear, we focus on the drape of the dhoti and the precise placement of embroidery on collars and cuffs.
Based in Vijayanagar, Bangalore, we have worked with clients from across the city and even internationally. If you have an idea, an old brooch you want incorporated, or a specific wedding theme like Royal or Vintage, bring it to us. We will sketch it out, discuss the fabrics, and ensure the trial process is seamless. It is about building a piece that you feel comfortable in, not just one that looks good on a hanger.
