Sari transformation gown — Indian sari reimagined as a contemporary silhouette, handmade in Seattle

The Service

Sari Transformations

Bring your own Sari. Bring your pre-loved — inherited, heirloom or maybe slightly damaged sari — and partake in its transformation into a new wearable piece. A gown, cocktail dress, a duster; the possibilities are endless. Every piece is cut and sewn in Seattle, to your measurements.

If you don’t have a sari, the studio has a curated selection of silk georgettes, kanjeevarams, chiffons and embellished weaves to choose from.

$300–1,800 Price Range

Bespoke & Custom Work

Every garment begins
with a conversation

Each piece in this portfolio was created for a specific person, a specific occasion, a specific vision. Using upcycled Indian saris, new fabrics sourced from India, or materials chosen together — every garment is cut, draped and sewn by hand in the Queen Anne atelier. Made to your measurements. Made to last.
