About Custom Ethnic & Festive Wear
What I Do
I design custom ethnic and festive wear that’s all about you. Whether you want something regal for a wedding or a fun twist for a family celebration, I work with you to create outfits that feel special and personal.
My Signature Styles
- Designer blouses are my jam - think heavy embroidery, cool back cutwork, and even initials stitched in.
- Flowy Anarkalis and fusion festive gowns, with prints or rich embroidery, are perfect for those who love a dramatic look.
- Lehengas with a twist - from tiered skirts for Mehendi to half-saree styles, I mix tradition and modern vibes.
Details That Matter
- I’m obsessed with hand embroidery. Zardosi, pearls, sequins, and fine cutwork are my go-tos.
- You’ll spot classic Indian motifs like Gandaberunda, paisleys, and florals in my work. These little touches make each piece unique.
Fabrics I Love
- Pure Tussar silk, Banarasi brocade, lush velvets for that royal feel.
- Hand-painted Kalamkari and delicate Chikankari for something truly special.
How It Works
- We chat, sketch, and pick fabrics together. I want your outfit to be 100% you.
- My artisans bring your vision to life, all by hand.
- Fittings and tweaks are part of the process. I ship worldwide too.
Heads Up
Every piece is custom, so I can’t do returns or exchanges. I’ll work with you to get every detail right before we start, so you’ll love what you get.

My Story
Hey, I’m Lavanya, and this is Rithi Design Studio - my little world in Sadashivnagar. ‘Rithi’ means tradition, and that’s what I’m all about. I get a kick out of hand embroidery, especially for weddings. There’s nothing like seeing a bride, groom, or even a tiny tot light up in something we made. Every piece is personal here, stitched with a lot of heart (and chai breaks).
My Work
Bespoke outfits for everyone - We design customised bridal lehengas, non-bridal ethnic wear, hand-embroidered kids’ outfits, and smart menswear for any big day.
Made just for you - Every outfit is made to order - your fit, your colours, your style. No copy-paste here.
Hand embroidery is our jam - We work magic with velvets, tussar silks, brocades - all about those tiny details and hand stitches.
Classic or fusion? Both! - Love a green-pink saree? Or want to mix it up with modern fusion wedding outfits? We’re game for both.
By appointment only - Drop by our Sadashivnagar studio - we chat, sketch, and make your dream outfit happen together.
