We discovered Tasarika at a pop-up of local brands and were bowled over by the simple elegance of their handprinted sarees and stoles - a combination of comfort and minimal designs with a touch of elegance.

What Makes It Awesome
The name Tasarika stands for ‘weaving’ in Sanskrit. It is an endeavour to bring various handwoven and handprinted materials, from across India to you. With an emphasis on detail and high-quality fabrics, Tasarika's collection is packed with pure cotton, handloom silks, linen, khadi and blockprinted handloom sarees and stoles at reasonable prices.
You can also pick up unstitched salwar suits - all in traditional designs like batik, kalamkari, and more. What really stood out were the hand-printed sarees and stoles on Bishnupur silks. And the prices! A pure linen hand-blockprinted saree costs just INR 1,850. They also do a range of unusual dhotis that are perfect for weddings and special occasions. Complete the look with colourful block printed tote bags, which are washable.
