Namaste! I am Abriya Sultan, and I am beyond thrilled to share with you the journey of Ikhtirah, a brand born out of a deep-rooted passion for social change and a profound love for the rich tapestry of Indian fashion.
As a mother to a vibrant 5-year-old boy, I’ve been on a quest to create a legacy that transcends mere material pursuits. With a Master’s in social work from the esteemed Tata Institute of Social Sciences in Mumbai, and years dedicated to empowering communities in the development sector, Ikhtirah emerged as a beacon of hope—a purpose-driven endeavor that goes beyond fashion to touch lives.
Each thread in our exquisite garments is intertwined with a story of empowerment. With every purchase from Ikhtirah, you’re not just adding a stunning piece to your wardrobe; you’re igniting a spark of change. Your support fuels our mission to educate underprivileged children, offering them a path to a brighter tomorrow. But it doesn’t end there. You’re also championing the cause of our unsung heroes—the marginalized artisans—who pour their heart and soul into every creation, preserving the legacy of handloom and powerloom craftsmanship.
Together, we are not just buying clothes; we are weaving a tapestry of compassion, style, and cultural pride. With every stitch, we’re crafting a more inclusive future where every individual is valued and empowered to shine.
Join us on this journey as we redefine fashion as a force for good. Let’s embrace our collective power to make a difference, one garment at a time. Together, let’s fashion a brighter, more inclusive future.
With boundless gratitude and love,
Abriya Sultan
Founder, Ikhtirah
