Why I Love Upcycling Heirloom Sarees
For me, every saree holds a story. There's something about a vintage Kanjeevaram or an old Benarasi that just feels special - memories stitched right in. I don't like the idea of these beauties getting stuck away in trunks. I want to help you wear those stories, not just keep them.
What I Do With Your Saree
- Turn sarees into statement dresses - pleated gowns, sangeet-ready dresses, even something strapless if that's your vibe.
- Two-piece sets? Yes, please. I can split one saree into outfits like a dress and a jacket, so you get more than one way to wear your heritage.
- I work with all sorts of traditional fabrics - Benarasi, Kanjeevaram, Paithani, Mysore silk, tissue, brocade, georgette, organza - you name it.
Handling Old Fabrics
- Old sarees usually have nicks or stains. I don't hide that - instead, I use embroidery, re-dyeing, or creative design to work around these.
- Each piece is different, and I take care to keep the fabric's original soul.
How We Work Together
- It's always a one-on-one thing. We sit down, talk about what your saree means to you, and design together.
- I find the best results come when you trust me with some creative freedom - that's when the real magic happens.
If you've thought about a modern heirloom saree transformation or want repurposed silk saree outfits, I'm all in.

Sacaru by Kavya & Pooja
My Story
We’re Kavya and Pooja, and Sacaru is our labour of love. Indian textiles are kinda our thing – the silk, the brocade, all those stories woven in. We started Sacaru to keep those old-school threads alive, but with a twist for today’s women. We get a kick out of details, like a surprise pop of colour or the fall of a drape. Taking a stained vintage saree and turning it into a modern dress? That’s our jam. Fashion with soul, slow and conscious.
My Work
What We Do - Ethnic couture, custom bridal wear, Indo-Western outfits, cocktail dresses, made-to-order pret, upcycled saree dresses.
Slow Fashion, Always - We believe in making timeless pieces and upcycling vintage sarees into wearable art.
Obsessed With Details - Expect hand embroidery, zardosi, beadwork, and lots of mixing fabrics and textures.
Custom, Every Time - We collaborate with you - your ideas, our hands. Fit and feel are everything.
