From Dresses To Crop Tops: Get Custom-Made Clothes For Summer

Anhaya Designs is a homegrown, eco-friendly label that features beautiful contemporary Indian or ‘Indo-Western’ clothing for women.

Anhaya was started by Sharwari Patil in August 2016, after her return from completing her studies at Parsons School of Design in New York {where she did a 2-year diploma in design}. Each collection is different from the next – the first one featured Indigo-dyed material sourced from Jaipur, the second one showcased Ikkat prints from Hyderabad, and her most recent {and fifth} collection will highlight textiles from Assam. Sharwari plans each collection in great detail and chooses to work with artisans who use organic textiles and dyes – keeping it as sustainable as possible. Dresses, tops, skirts, pants, crop tops, over-throws, and kimonos are just some of the styles you’ll see in Anhaya’s repertoire – usually priced between INR 1000 – 5000. From patterns and prints to embellishments, it’s stylish enough for day-to-day wear as well as special occasions. If you’d like to commission a custom-made outfit, you can put in a request. Currently working out of her home studio in Koregaon Park, visits are by appointment only, or you can view the collections and order through Anhaya’s Instagram or Facebook page. Sharwari can also courier the package to you if you live outside Pune.

We love the understated elegance in Anhaya’s designs, some of which are unique, one-of-a-kind pieces. Forget fast fashion, and update your wardrobe with Anhaya’s modern-ethnic chic clothing!

Anhaya will be showcasing their new collection at an exhibition in April – so keep an eye on their Instagram.
