It is shimmer season all year around but more so, during the wedding season which we welcome with open arms. Now we know that no outfit is complete without a stunning pair of shoes that ties everything up, and time since immemorial, Needledust, and their juttis, have been on our radar especially during the festive season. If you are drooling over the juttis and have gawked at their mirrored, embroidered and fabulous motifs that go with any outfit, we get where you're coming from.

This brand, is known for their handcrafted juttis, sandals, mules and potlis, that combines traditional Indian craftsmanship with modern design. These juttis are all the rage right now seen on several celebrities too — from Sonam Kapoor to Kriti Sanon — but if you are looking to capture a similar look maybe minus the heavy-ish price tag,  then here are 10 Needledust alternatives you need to check out.

Chasing Needledust for its embroidery? Coral Haze has a collection that is just as good, with embroidery work ranging across prints like nature, mandala and more. Touted by celebrities like Deepika Padukone and Nora Fatehi, you will be floored by their craftmanship that also provides vegan, cruelty free footwear options.

We adore this particular ivory jutti for the way the elegance of the colour has been preserved with a light and not so gaudy design that totally matches Needledust's Lia.

If you are a fan of the handicraft power of Needledust, then you will love Yassio's collections. Though their collection of heels cap at INR 4K, their jutti collection cap at INR 3K and are stunning dupes to Needledust's flawless motifs. The juttis are made from high-quality fabric and have ethnic designs capturing nature and gorgeous mirror work, leaving no stone unturned (quite literally) on the shimmer factor.

This particulah Milah jutti from Yasio is a perfect dupe for Needledust's Sheesh Mahal at nearly half the price and full glamour of the mirror work.

Looking for an iconic jutti? This namesake is quite the promise kept with its collection of juttis that are priced affordably. But the best part is their designs. This cream coloured jutti delivers the perfect traditional wholesomeness, promising a snug fit for your sole and soul ( the writer is apologetic for the feeble attempt at a pun).  It has a refined finish that matches the Rabee design from Needledust. Unlike the latter's subtle pastel floral embroidery, Iconics' jutti has a brighter finish to the pastel undertones, perfect for darker ethnic wear.

Juttichoo represents Punjabi culture with its elegant set of juttis, and if you are one for authentic fashion, you are going to have fun falling head over heels for their collection. By bringing a token of Punjab to the world, the brand has various collections to suit occasions. What we love about them also is that they do lovely daily wear and casual wear juttis alongside grand bridal juttis. Their 'Your Majesty' piece gives you the necessary dash of royal pink on your feet and is quite similar to the Rani piece by Needledust — except, it is not all just mirrors, but the addition of the bird motif makes this one stand out.

La Fiza knows how to make juttis that will tie seamlessly with your entire outfit. The designs are simple and affordable, and we love their soles which are rich and red and remind us of desi Christian Louboutins! Their jashn velvet juttis also share similarity with Needledust's Kelaya jutti. Pick them if you want your jutti to have a prominent design.

For a pure leather touch to your ensemble, Fulkari juttis should be in your cart. What we love about them is that they're almost  reminiscent of a city's dusty lanes, giving you Bollywood desi character vibes. These pearl white juttis from Fulkari are a stunning pair with tiny pearls in a symmetric pattern. It closely resembles the Needledust Saeba jutti that has an embroidered design instead.

Saya has handcrafted juttis with stunning prints, fabrics and design elements. If you love Needledust for their prints, Saya's products will definitely have your heart. This particular one by Saya is a Rang jutti. Beyond the splash of colours, we love how it maintains its simplicity in its design and is not too gaudy, perfect for an afternoon pre-wedding ceremony. And if you are looking for a richer option to the same design, Needledust's Rangrez has you covered.

House Of Vian is the brainchild of Drishti who wanted to blend traditional designs with trendy styles. The brand's collection of Rajasthani and Punjabi juttis takes after the grandeur of Indian festivals. We love their collection with over-the-top royal elements. Their Zahra embroidered juttis are sequined to shimmer and have a neat fabric design at the back, similar to the Aarzoo green jutti of Needledust that is less sequined and has more embroidery. 

Glam Story

True to their name, Glam Story adds pizzazz to their handmade footwear with designs and embroidery that we can only coin as contemporary coolness. Their designs have detailed sketches and motifs that have amazing detailing, almost like wearing art. This particular zuhra blue embellished punjabi jutti  has a smooth fabric lined with eye-catching pearls. It is quite similar to Needledust's Lila that takes the gold tone approach instead of the pearl. If you are going for a silver undertone to your accessories, the Glam Story variant will be your saviour.

Needledust also does gorgeous potlis and purses that shimmer with elegant mirror work and oftentimes, plays heavily into our wallets. A close alternative to Needledust's Audrey purse is this pure pearly white potli by Peora. While the Audrey variant has a heavily designed white handle with its body fully furnished with tiny, pearl embroidery; the Peora potli  is an escape from the grand designs and has a subtle white embroidery elevated by its pearl drawstring, perfect for a day wedding.
