About

Chidiyaa is an Indian handmade, sustainable clothing label for women, founded in Pune in 2015 by Pooja Rajput. An engineer by training, Rajput left a corporate career to follow her love of sarees, art and traditional craft, and named the brand after the house sparrow. She designs every collection herself, favouring minimal, understated motifs, natural fabrics and a slow-fashion pace. Chidiyaa is best known for hand block printed cotton sarees and handwoven linen zari sarees, alongside blouses, kurtis, kurta sets, dresses and tops. Pieces such as the Afternoon Nap saree, the Aparna Block Printed Cotton Kurta and the Arika Mashru Silk Blouse show its mix of print and weave. Everything is made in India. The brand began with Rajput sourcing fabrics and artisan work directly from villages, and it still works with artisan communities across India, including hand block printers and handloom weavers in West Bengal. Its fabrics are mainly cotton, linen and mashru silk, and it uses traditional prints such as ajrak. Chidiyaa has grown into one of India's well-known online saree labels and has been profiled by YourStory and The Indian Express.

Runaway Bicycle

India · Est. 2014 · Mid-range

Runaway Bicycle is a sustainable Indian designer clothing label for women, founded in Mumbai in 2014 by Preeti Verma. Verma built the first collection in a one-bedroom apartment after work hours while holding a day job in advertising, driven by a personal need for clothes that felt comfortable before they looked good. Her lack of fashion training was offset by knowledge of traditional weaving and a belief that the most comfortable clothes are worn by children and people in physical work, such as painters, mechanics and road workers. The label makes dresses, tops, shirts, trousers, skirts and jackets, along with accessories and home décor. Everything is handmade in India, linking traditional weavers and dyers across the country, including handloom weavers in Bengal, with craftspeople in its Mumbai studio. Runaway Bicycle works with handloom and hand-spun cotton, silk, linen and wool, with some pieces hand-painted or naturally dyed. Its ethical philosophy is to make less: clothes designed to outlast trends and seasons, soften with age and withstand many washes, so customers buy less and wear longer. The label has shown at Lakmé Fashion Week and been featured by Vogue India, Vogue Singapore, Elle India and Mint.
