Love Masaba? 7 Brands Just As Good As The Queen Of Prints

Bright, bold and with lots of prints. That’s pretty much Masaba for you. But wait, it’s also Chidiyaa! We love that Chidiyaa not only offers trendy designs and contemporary silhouettes, but that they do so using very traditional crafts, techniques and local inspiration. Sustainable and eco-friendly, Chidiyaa's clothes are designed in-house and handmade by artisans from villages across the country. Ideal for dreamers and doers, their sarees, dresses, kurtis, blouses as well as bottoms and wraps come in silks, mul mul and are easy-breezy. We love that their dresses come with pockets! Currently though, we’re tripping on their crop tops (like this one), the dragon fly dresses (this pink one is our favourite) as well as the entire collection of black-ish outfits called Kohl. 

Prices start at INR 1,490.

Similar Masaba vibes but slightly lesser pricing points? No wonder we are picking Chique. The online women's fashion brand has flowy dresses and cute tops along with collections that are print-heavy. The Bloom'In Hues is one collection you need to check out if you love loud, colourful, and floral prints. You must check out their long dresses and tunics. Their range of shirts are a definite wardrobe essential. Find prints, embellishments, and modern silhouttes on these shirts -- the Opada Lilac Zip-up shirt is one such piece. Also, the Carrot Bandhej shirt is such a cute number.

If prints are what you love House of Masaba for, then you’ll be very pleased with the collection at Ekaya Banaras. From Banarasi silk sarees and lehengas to digital printed lehengas that look so far from anything a machine could ever produce, everything Ekaya does screams unique elegance. They’ve even got pantsuits in silk fabrics, which look so cool. What is also great is that their website has ease of navigation, and you can browse their collection based on fabric, print, or general outfit categories. However, we recommend Ekaya if what you are looking for is full-on, out-there, festive looks.
