Urban Suburban

Helmed by three sisters, Urban Suburban was founded in 2017 as a culmination of the trio’s desire to blend travel, food, and vacations with the aesthetic of the clothes they create. Having observed gaps in women’s fashion, such as limited sizes, designs, and colours, Urban Suburban strives to Indianise their clothing while keeping it comfortable and stylish for all holiday needs. If you love to experiment with fashion, their clothes are right up your alley!

NicobarBlending India’s rich heritage with contemporary design, Nicobar is a brand to look out for. Inspired by journeys across the Indian Ocean, each season Nicobar innovates with designs inspired by coastal routes like Sri Lanka, Japan, Bali, Myanmar, Thailand and more. We highly recommend their linen kurtas and flowy tops, which exude both sophistication and modernity—all at once. With a strong focus on sustainability, Nicobar is an eco-conscious choice for all fashionistasNicobar

Doodlage

Doodlage creates beautiful apparel from upcycled waste, scraps, and fabrics to create season-less, well-finished garments made for longevity. Their designs are fresh, minimal, and happy, and are made with so much thought and creativity. The packaging is also made from the scraps that are left from their own production, so you know that the whole process is sustainable and makes you feel great about you spending too. 

Suta

Looking for beautiful sarees, blouses, and fabrics that help you create a statement, there is no better place to buy them from the one and only Suta. Their designs are centered on creating a range of attire with a blend of tradition and contemporaneity, where inspirations pay attention to details, adding elegance, boldness, and grace. They adhere to the traditional weaving process, making each saree from the brand absolutely worth the buy. 

Qua Clothing

Modern, chic and of great quality, Qua Clothing has carved a remarkable niche for itself in the power-dressing sphere for women. Their designs are fresh, functional, and perfectly tailored so you get high-fashion quality at fast fashion prices. The silhouettes feature different cuts, structured shoulders, and unique draping styles which we honestly find to be a fresh breeze in a sea of copy-pasted designer rip-offs.

Fabindia

Everyone and their mothers (and even grandmothers) swear by Fabindia when good fabric, simple styles, and budget-friendly options are the goal for your next ethnic fit. Step into a Fabindia store, and we’re sure you won’t leave empty-handed because their prints look good on everyone! From block-printed shirts to flowy outfits and Indian textiles, they truly have it all.

Aulerth

Small details can create a huge impact, and Aulerth totally understands that. They don’t use any materials that would harm the planet; in fact, they use recycled materials that are built to last a lifetime. The brand collaborates with talented Indian designers like Shivan & Narresh and JJ Valaya, relying on the finest artisans to create jewellery that never fails to make a statement. We absolutely love their Tribe Amrapali range, especially the necklaces, which are all so elegant and versatile!

No Labels

‘No Labels’ knows how to keep style in the front row without sacrificing comfort. Positioned somewhere between fast and slow fashion, they create pieces designed to “uplift the self-esteem of every woman.” The brand’s goal is to craft garments that women of all ages and body shapes can feel both comfortable and confident in. The silhouettes are mostly roomy, but not in a laid-back way, which we absolutely love. In addition to clothing, they also offer stunning jewellery and bag collections.

Raw Mango

Raw Mango is an unmissable saree staple in our wardrobes. Their silk yards of excellence were showcased when Akshata Murthy wore their saree during the G20 summit in New Delhi and on the runway at Lakmé Fashion Week 2023. By blending different philosophies, art, and cultures of India into its collection of handloom silk apparel, Raw Mango highlights design, fabric, and texture like no other.

ANI Clothing

Modern silhouettes, Zimmerman-like prints, and denims that capture the essence of street style fashion—ANI Clothing does all that and more. Launched in 2020, the brand quickly gained popularity with its unique and striking black-and-white and tie-dye designs. What we personally love about them is their focus on maximalist prints and minimalist patterns, offering apparel suited for all sorts of occasions.

Almost GodsFounded by Dhruv Khurana in 2018, Almost Gods is a homegrown brand that has put high-street fashion on the Indian map. What we love about their clothes is how seamlessly they draw inspiration from mythology, art, and even global “power,” creating stunning apparel with unique cuts and prints. They offer a diverse range too, from shirts, polos, and hoodies to dresses and even swimwear.Almost Gods

CORD

CORD was founded by Neha Singh and Pranav Guglani with a straightforward mission—to merge comfort with style through versatile fabrics and cuts that can be worn anywhere. The brand draws inspiration from art, culture, and travel, while incorporating age-old techniques to create timeless, classic pieces that never go out of style. Their outfits have been worn by celebrities like Farhan Akhtar, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Dia Mirza, and more. The best part? They practice sustainability by sourcing raw materials ethically and using all-natural fabrics. We are absolutely in love with their Shapeshifters collection, which features quirky ’60s-inspired prints that evoke both tradition and nostalgia.
