Our story

I am Vani Rathi

A couture designer rooted in the belief that India's textile heritage deserves to live on — not in museums, but in the wardrobes of women who appreciate true craftsmanship. Since 2010, I have dressed over 500 clients for the most important moments of their lives.

Values

What I stand for

Craft first

Every motif hand-embroidered, every fabric hand-selected. I never cut corners.

Client partnership

Your vision shapes my design. I co-create with you, not just deliver.

Fearless design

I push heritage craft into bold, contemporary silhouettes that surprise and delight.

Heritage palace
Craft is not decoration. It is devotion.

Founder & Creative Director

Every piece begins with my hands — from the first sketch to the final fitting. I personally oversee each commission to ensure it meets the standard my clients have come to expect.

Trained in traditional Rajasthani embroidery and modern fashion design, I bridge two worlds to create garments that feel both timeless and contemporary.
