Astha Narang

Astha Narang ensembles are feminine, versatile and most importantly, sparkly! No one does elegant sequins quite like Astha Narang — so if you’re looking for something distinguished that catches the eye, definitely try an Astha Narang piece.

Ayush Kejriwal

Ayush Kejriwal is considered the ‘Sabyasachi of the UK’ by some — so, think elevated traditional. While Ayush Kejriwal’s bridal lenghas will have you feeling like royalty, he is actually best know for his vintage sarees. Each of his designs are a work of art, and he creates classic ensembles that can be handed down for generations to follow.

Mrunalini Rao

Mrunalini Rao creates outfits that are vibrant, flowy and colorful. The collection spans a wide range of colors and silhouettes, ensuring there is something for everyone! Each piece is designed to make you look and feel your absolute best.

Ridhima Bhasin

Romantic accents, flowing silhouettes, and intricate embroidery all describe a classic Ridhima Bhasin piece. Ridhima Bhasin’s collection is perfect for when you want to give off desi boho chic vibes.

HoliChic by Megha

Urban functionality meets contemporary flair — I can spot a HoliChic by Megha design from a mile away! Edgy, yet comfortable. Trendy, yet traditional. HoliChic is made especially for the modern Indian woman.

The Little Black Bow

The Little Black Bow creates timeless pieces that are elegant and dreamy. Their pieces don’t rely on sparkle and shine to grab your attention, but rather draw your focus to the woman wearing them. Along with attention to detail and quality, the designers truly prioritize comfort and functionality. And I can definitely attest to this, since most of their pieces come with pockets!

Better yet, Kynah sells separates on their site so you can put together your own fusion outfit!

The French Darjee

Chic cuts, pastels, tassels, and ethereal beauty come to mind when I think about The French Darjee. Every piece is a stunning blend of contemporary fabrics and drapes with traditional embroidery and beading.

Harleen Kaur

Harleen Kaur offers globally inspired contemporary South Asian designs. Produced entirely in New York City, the collection is as culturally diverse as the people it caters to. My favorite thing about Harleen Kaur is her ability to experiment with bold colors. During a time when more and more designers are gravitating towards pastels and neutrals, Harleen Kaur pushes the envelope by creating bright and vivid pieces.

Priya Chhabria Designs

This has to be one of my top 5 favorite Indian outfits that I've worn. This pre-wrapped dhoti-sari by Priya Chhabria is stylish, comfortable, flattering AND makes me feel like royalty — all while being practical and easy to wear! 

Mitan Ghosh

Mitan Ghosh has some of my FAVORITE indo-fusion silhouettes. This ensemble pairing a peplum blouse and dhoti pants was so much fun to style & wear. And the compliments I received were truly endless.
