This is the embodiment of a bridal dream. I designed this eternal red lehenga with opulent, heavy zardosi and velvet appliqué, ensuring every inch speaks of royalty. It is for the bride who wants to feel like a queen, wrapped in the majesty of tradition.

I believe in creating a unified story for my couples. Here, the groom's black velvet sherwani, with its intricate shoulder embroidery, perfectly complements the bride's ethereal, sequined lehenga. It's a portrait of coordinated elegance.

For the bride who commands attention, I create dramatic silhouettes like this showstopper tail gown. The entire gown is hand-embellished, flowing into a magnificent maroon Persian veil that adds a touch of modern royalty to the runway.

My Ruvaah collection is a celebration of modern romance. This trio of pastel lehengas in lilac, pink, and ivory showcases my love for 3D floral work and fine detailing, perfect for the bride who seeks a fresh, ethereal aesthetic.

There is nothing more rewarding than seeing the joy of a couple on their special day. I designed her shimmering gold lehenga and his bespoke embroidered jacket to create a harmonious look, ensuring they shine together as they begin their new chapter.

The soul of my work lies in the details. This close-up reveals the meticulous handwork, the layers of zardosi, and the richness of the fabric that come together to create a masterpiece. It is craftsmanship you can see and feel.

A saree is a canvas of grace. I designed this piece with extensive hand-embroidery, focusing on zardosi and stone embellishments to create a garment that is both a work of art and a treasured piece of heritage.

About this collection

My process prioritizes the silhouette above all else. For my heavy bridal ensembles, I construct the base with 10 to 12 panels of micro-velvet and multiple layers of heavy can-can, ensuring the skirt holds its regal shape through the longest ceremonies. If you choose a lighter Indo-western piece, I shift my focus to fluid fabrics like georgette or organza, balancing intricate machine-embroidery with hand-touched sequins for effortless movement.

Design for me is about the balance between the weight of heritage and the freedom of modern fashion. Whether you are searching for a traditional Banarasi bridal lehenga or a contemporary Indo-western bridal outfit, the approach remains the same, prioritizing quality fabrics like premium raw silk and organza.

Each ensemble features authentic zardozi and aari handwork. I personally ensure that every piece is tailored to your specific measurements, with fittings adjusted to your comfort. For my gowns and trail lehengas, I incorporate structural elements like crinoline or reinforced tulle to achieve dramatic, floor-sweeping silhouettes that maintain their form.

My signature collection is often defined by 3D floral appliqués and precise mirror work, techniques that require steady hands and intense attention to detail. I work with brides to align their vision with my materials, whether that means a heavy red lehenga for a Nikah or a pastel set for a cocktail night. Because my studio is based here in Bengaluru on Commercial Street, I am able to work closely with you through every step of the process, from initial sketches to the final trial.
