India is the natural source for women's ethnic and fusion wear. Jaipur, Surat, Delhi, Kolkata and Ludhiana combine block printing, embroidery, rayon and cotton weaving with fast, flexible sewing units, so designs can move from sketch to container in weeks. We supply kurtis, leggings, tops, dresses, abayas and kaftans to boutiques, diaspora stores, wholesalers and fashion brands.

Importers in Paris and Marseille supply retailers and online sellers; wholesalers in Paris buy kaftans and ethnic wear; brands source cotton and linen.

You are not limited to stock designs. We make women's & ethnic wear in bulk in the colour you choose, in the sizes and size ratio your customers wear, and in the design you supply for the France market. A reference garment, a tech pack, a sketch or even a photograph is enough to start.

How it works: send a Pantone code or fabric swatch for colour and we return a lab-dip; send your size chart and the ratio you want in each carton; send artwork, print, embroidery or label files for the design. We make a sample for approval and then produce the bulk to that approved sample, so the order you receive matches the one you signed off.

Size range: XS–5XL; plus-size blocks and free-size styles; UK, EU and US sizing on request.
