My Story
Hi, I’m Mayuri. Rajasthani roots run deep, so trust me, I’m all about tradition – especially Rajputana Poshak. Festive feels at home, always! I love dressing up my daughter for Janmashtami or her dance shows. Once, her costume didn’t fit, so I grabbed a saree and made a dhoti outta it – quick jugaad (hack), right? Sarees are my happy place. For me, it’s not just work, it’s celebrating our culture, one drape at a time.
