Here’s Why You Should Design Your Own Clothes Virtually

You might not be a fashion designer, you might not be someone who understands how fabrics need to be matched with seasons or occasions. You might not know much about how certain types of embroidery work best with certain types of fabrics and you might not know much about how to choose from a plethora of wedding bridal lehengas. However, when you come to IndiaEmporium, you can be sure that you can walk out with the best outfits, no matter what your fashion knowledge. 

One of the main reasons why IndiaEmporium has become so popular is that it allows even those who know very little about fashion to look fashionable, every time. IndiaEmporium has not only simplified fashion, it has also brought the latest trends to every corner of the world. No matter which part of the world you are in, you can get your hands on these trends, because IndiaEmporium ships to almost every corner of the globe. 

Let’s say you are someone who knows little about fashion, but want custom made outfits, then IndiaEmporium is the place for you to come to. They have the most incredible design team, who will understand what it is that you are looking for, and then create the exact replica of what you had imagined. Although, for those who are not fashion forward, all this might seen incredibly complicated, but in reality, things could not be simpler. When you come to IndiaEmporium, you can browse through the truly incredible range of clothes and accessories they offer and you can choose something you like. However, if you are not completely satisfied with one outfit, but would want a little something from three or four outfits, you can get that done that too. 

I was someone who was apprehensive too, when my best friend told me that you could design your own clothes virtually at IndiaEmporium, but seeing her confidence, I decided to give it a try. I went to the website and was actually stunned at the range they had on offer – from simple kurtas that you can wear on a daily basis to outfits that I had seen on the red carpet, being worn by celebrities; there was simply so much to choose from. However, I really wanted to test their design team – so I told that I wanted an outfit that would be perfect for me, for my sister’s upcoming wedding. 

The kind of questions the designer asked me gave me immense confidence, because they were all the right kinds of questions. From asking me where the wedding was going to take place to the date, they asked me almost everything that I could imagine and more. By asking me the location, which was Udaipur in Rajasthan, they were able to suggest royal and regal looking colours such as purple and deep shades of red. When they asked me the date, which was the beginning of April, they suggested that I stick to lighter fabrics, as the heat tends to get out of hand in places like Rajasthan. 

They asked me to send in my measurements, using which they were able to gauge my problem areas and went on to suggest silhouettes that would mask all those areas, making me look slimmer and prettier. Normally, when you are looking for custom dresses online, you will not find a lot in exact accordance to what you need – you might find the colour you want, but it might not be the fabric you want, or you could find the type of dress that you wanted, but it might not have the type of work you fancy. However, at IndiaEmporium, all this is made possible by a team of incredibly talented designers, tailors and craftspeople. 

Once all our discussions were over, the people at IndiaEmporium sent over a sketch of what my dress would look like and just that sketch was enough to make me fall head over in heels. Over the next several days, almost every other day, I would have an email from them, which would have some new step of our my outfit creation – so if one day there was a swatch of embroidery work, another day it would be the dress being created on a mannequin. I have to tell you, IndiaEmporium changed my perception of custom women's clothing altogether and I was thoroughly impressed at how professional and talented the team was. 

In less than a month, I received an email that my outfit was ready and would be shipped to me soon and true to their word, within a few days this big package arrived at my door. Packed inside it, with utmost care, was this stunning lehenga, which fit me like a dream and took the breath away of quite a few people, at my sister’s wedding, including my husband! You have no idea how many people asked me where I got my outfit from, and all I had to tell them was when they too wanted custom tailored ethnic wear or even something modern and snazzy, the only place they needed to go to was IndiaEmporium! 

Finding Special Occasion Dresses In Australia Was Never This Easy

Even though I am someone who was born in Australia, I have always identified myself as an Indian first and then an Australian. I mean, even though on paper and all the legal documents, I am an Australian citizen, my family is from India and no matter what anyone says I have an Indian ethos. I love everything Indian – whether its food, movies, music or even clothes and although I do wear Western outfits most of the time, I just look for opportunities where I can flaunt my Indian occasion dresses.

I have friends who are absolutely in love with the clothes I wear and are often asking me where I find such stunning clothes. Whether it’s a saree that I drape around my reasonably in-shape body or the floor length anarkalis that I wear to rock college events, there is definitely something for my friends to gape at, every time I decide to dress up. There is truly something incredible about the Indian fashion scene today – there is so much going on in terms of fabrics being used and the designs being brought to life with them. Innumerable talented designers in India are using modern fabrics and methods to meld ancient techniques of embroidery and other needle crafts to bring to life outfits that are no ordinary events dresses. 

For the longest time, my mother or her sister would pick out clothes for me and my cousins on their trips to India, but that all stopped the day I found out about this incredible website called IndiaEmporium. This place was an oasis for me, because not only could I find the most extensive range of all the latest fashions in India, I could get it all shipped to my doorstep, right here in Melbourne! Every time, I am on IndiaEmporium, I feel like I am in the most exclusive boutique, because not only do they have the best festival outfits, but also the most adorable clothes for regular wear. And what is truly wonderful about IndiaEmporium is the fact that just in case you are not able to find something that you love, you could even get it designed. 

The true calibre of the design team at IndiaEmporium came to the forefront the day I set them a task – I needed an outfit that went above and beyond traditional festival clothing, because this was an outfit that I wanted to gift my cousin for her very first Diwali after getting married. She was planning to wear one of those sarees that had been a part of her wedding trousseau that she had never worn. While the saree was a stunning Kancheepuram one, I wanted her to have something that would make her stand apart in the crowd of Indians residing in Melbourne. I wanted her to look like the new bride and the stunner that she is and I wanted everyone to sit up and pay attention to how gorgeous she is and for that she needed a little more than the typical special occasion dresses for weddings.

So, I had a chat with the designers at IndiaEmporium and told them about the importance of the occasion and they immediately started sharing the latest trends in India. I fell in love with a lehenga saree design that they showed me and I knew that this was what I wanted to have created for my darling cousin. I started exploring options in terms of fabrics and colour combinations. With a lot of inputs from the designers, I finalised a combination of satin and net for the fabrics and we decided to go with multiple shades of blue. I decided that I wanted very delicate embroidery and the design team suggested that because we were going with a blue colour palette, silver and pearls would go very well. 

Within a day, they had sent me a sketch of what the outfit would look like – it looked so stunning that I decided to get something similar designed for myself too, albeit a little later – after all, I would not want to steal the spotlight from my sister. I okayed the design and during the next few days, I was constantly getting updates from the design team at IndiaEmporium, showing me how the outfit was progressing. I was getting pictures of how the silhouette of the outfit was coming and even swatches of the embroidery and pearl work. And before I could believe it, I received an email telling me that the outfit was ready and would be shipped to me soon. 

My mom has been looking for special occasion dresses in Australia for the longest time, but when she saw the outfit that I had gifted my sister, I have to tell you, she was supremely impressed with me. And as for my sister, she dazzled in that couture outfit, just as I had predicted!
