About Ethnic & Occasion Wear Rental
Why I Do This
Clothes change how you feel, especially at big moments. I want you to walk into your event thinking, “Naanu super look madthini!” (I’m looking awesome!). Whether it’s for a pre-wedding shoot, maternity session, or that special muhurtham, my aim is to make your day memorable with the right outfit.
What You’ll Find
I handpick every piece in the collection:
- For her: half sarees in silk and kalamkari, Kanchi tissue sarees, designer blouses, heavy bridal lehengas, and maternity photoshoot gowns.
- For him: Jodhpuri suits, kurta sets, and Western suits, all in mint condition.
- For couples: coordinated ethnic wear so your photos pop.
How I’m Different
Can’t find your size or a style you want? Just tell me. We do custom-fit saree rentals and even last-minute fixes from our in-house studio. Someone once came to me with only two days before Diwali, and we stitched her a skirt to match her favorite blouse. Adru (Still), I’m strict about quality - embroidery and handwork should be channagide (spot on).
For Every Occasion
Weddings, engagements, maternity shoots, Varamahalakshmi, Diwali, parties - if you have a reason to dress up, I probably have something for you. I also offer matching rental jewellery, so you’re sorted head to toe.
Real Talk
Sometimes, the exact shade or design you want might not be there, but I’ll always suggest the closest match possible.
My goal: you leave happier than you came.

My Story
Hey, I’m Vijay, and Designer Trends is my baby. Always had a soft spot for maggam work and those lush silks – you know, our traditional stuff. Saw folks wanting to look fab for weddings, baby showers, but buying those heavy outfits for just one day? Doesn’t make sense, right? That’s why I started renting out designer pieces. Best part? Seeing someone’s face light up when they find ‘the one’. Once, we even whipped up a new skirt from a saree in two days for a shoot. That’s what keeps me going.
