About Custom Designer & Bridal Blouses
Why These Blouses Matter to Me
Blouse andre (means) not just a cloth for me - especially for brides, it’s an emotion, a story you wear. I get how much these moments mean, and I want every detail to make you feel confident and beautiful.
How I Work With You
- First step is always your saree. We’ll look at its fabric and details, and I’ll suggest designs that actually suit it - nimma sarige suit aago tara (in a way that matches your saree).
- Your ideas matter. If you love delicate beads or want bold threadwork, we’ll customize every bit. Budget isn’t a worry - I’ll recommend techniques that work for you and still look top-notch.
- Collaboration is key. I want the blouse to reflect your personality, not just the saree.
My Craft & Techniques
- Hand embroidery is my thing - especially aari work wedding blouse and maggam work. I also do knot work if you want a bead-free look.
- I’m obsessed with bridal motifs - doli scenes, elephants, peacocks, and classic vines or checks.
- Love custom tassels and pearl details - they add that perfect finishing touch.
For Any Occasion
Not just for Mahurtham (wedding ceremony). I also make party blouses, simple ones, or statement back blouse designs for when you want something extra.
Blouses should help you celebrate yourself. I put my heart into every piece so you can feel it too.

My Story
Hello hi, ellarigunu! I’m Divya. Nine years, one boutique, Alankar Designer Studio, and a lot of heart. I’ve stitched for celebs and regular folks. Funny thing, I never felt comfy in my own skin – always in loose shirts, skipping weddings. Started my weight loss, not for quick fix, but for me. Amma Marikamba blesses, I believe. First time in a decade, I wore my own design for a photoshoot. Emotional! Now, I celebrate myself and my work. Oh, and I married my bestie – real love needs real effort.
My Work
Custom Design for Everyone - I create bridal wear, Western gowns, Indowestern outfits, lehengas, anarkalis, and even sibling matching outfits.
Blouse and Dress Tailoring - Bring your saree, nimma sarige suit aago tara (we’ll make it suit you) – custom blouse designs, your budget, your style.
Ball Gowns with Layers - For ball gowns, I show you the process – can-can, crepe, satin, net. All step-by-step, so you know what’s happening.
Upcycled Pattu Lehenga - Old silk sarees? I turn them into fresh, upcycled pattu lehengas. Very popular, especially for traditional events.
Plus-size and Confidence - Beauty is all shapes. I design plus-size Indo-Western gowns with dupatta – flattering, comfy, and confidence boosting.
