About Beyond the Saree: Designer Dresses & Kurtas

The biggest difference you will notice in my dresses and kurtas is the fit. Unlike mass-market brands, I use boutique-standard tailoring that actually sits well on your frame. For lighter fabrics like georgette or rayon, I include full lining so you can just put it on and head out without a second thought.

I am Sudha, and my daughter and I live for fabrics that make you smile. When I am not out handpicking sarees, I am sketching these dresses for you—the ones that travel to beaches with you or see you through a long day of work. It is my heart and soul in every stitch.
