Our Story
It all began here …….
Born in 2012 , the roots of Mulberry Blue are entrenched in Bombay.
Creative juxtaposition of colours, silhouettes and design have always had a huge influence on me. Growing up in a home, full of women ( my mother and my mother- like aunts- with their “pakistan-sind” tradition-rich roots) who were exemplary cooks and fine masters at stitching, weaving , crochet, cutting etc gave me an early insight into all things beautiful, delectable , artistic and fashionable.
Learning first-hand by merely watching them was not only a delightful pastime but also gave me the added advantage of being my
“own darjee” and designer way back in college ! So voila , every event and party had me dressed in my own distinctive style, in an outfit designed, styled, cut and stitched by me and admired by all!
Ever since then, the journey has progressed and there have been many stations and stages with collection-based designs and one-off exhibitions , creative outbursts in the form of artworks on canvas, for a number of years and then finally in 2012 , the amalgamation of all in the form of Mulberry Blue .
A label which started with exquisite potli bags and neck- pieces, stoles and dupattas; now hosts a range of pret wear, tunics, Indian and indo-western fusion-wear ensembles.
Inspired by the beautiful and rich textile - mulberry, the brand takes its name and inspiration from the same and creates its unique range of classic, traditional yet contemporary garments in exquisite digital prints and rich embroideries on chanderis, mulmuls, voiles, linens and organzas.
Mulberry blue - a label for artistically designed garments, with its strong emphasis on colours and silhouettes, thus appeals to women of varied ages.
To my loving family, friends and well-wishers who have supported me & to my karigars, tailors and craftspersons who are an integral part of this enterprise, I extend my gratitude.
And to the women who have liked, loved, worn, appreciated and celebrated the brand, I dedicate this platform.
Come , join me on this journey.
Happy Shopping! - Be the woman who decided to go for it!
Love,
