Our story: The two best friends behind Studio Aadvika
From casual chats about our love for traditional drapes to building a small business together, this is the story behind Studio Aadvika.
From casual chats about our favorite drapes to chasing our dream every day, this is a glimpse into our small business journey. Thank you for being a part of it and for supporting our love for handloom.
They say to find a friend you can run a business with, and we feel so lucky to be living that dream. This is us, two best friends, building our brand one saree at a time.
We've learned so much on this journey. From valuing every piece of customer feedback to learning photography and digital marketing, we do it all ourselves. Our business is built on authenticity and a genuine connection with you.
A candid moment between us at one of our exhibitions. We believe in being perfectly imperfect and supporting each other through every step of this entrepreneurial journey.
Another shot of us, surrounded by the weaves we love. Every saree we select is a reflection of our shared aesthetic and passion for traditional Indian textiles.
A throwback to the early days. Our friendship has always been at the heart of Studio Aadvika, and it's the foundation of our brand's values.
The excitement of unboxing a new collection never gets old. We can't wait to share these beautiful handloom sarees, curated especially for the Ugadi festival, with all of you.
Come pack an order with us. We put so much love and care into every package, imagining the new memories you'll create in our sarees. We use sustainable cotton bags for our packaging.
Packing this big order all the way to Germany was such a happy moment for us. It's a reminder that the love for handloom sarees knows no borders.
As small business owners, every single order is precious to us. This video shows a little of what goes on behind the scenes, from sourcing to getting wonderful feedback from our customers.
About Our Story: Two Friends, One Dream
We handle every step of the process ourselves, from hand-picking our favorite traditional weaves to packing your orders in our signature cotton bags. When you reach out to us, you are speaking directly to us, not a support team.
We started Studio Aadvika during a casual conversation about sarees. We noticed a gap in the market for handloom options that were both breathable for the local climate and stylish enough for daily wear. We realized that for us, a saree is not just clothing. It is a piece of heritage, a memory, and a story told by the hands that wove it.
Every piece you see here is something we would wear ourselves. We focus on natural fabrics like Mul, Khadi, and silk-cottons because we know how important comfort is during a long day in Bengaluru or at a family event. We source directly from artisans, ensuring that our support for local weaving traditions remains at the core of what we do.
Being a small business means we are involved in everything. You might find us at pop-up exhibitions meeting customers, or late at night hand-packing orders to make sure your package arrives with a little piece of our love inside. We do not believe in mass production or generic inventory. We believe in authenticity. Thank you for being part of our journey and helping us turn a simple shared passion into a community of saree lovers.
