The Porgai Artisan Collection is more than just a line of carefully crafted garments; it is a celebration of heritage, creativity, and empowerment. Rooted in the vibrant Sittilingi community of Tamil Nadu, India, this collection seeks to honor and revive the traditional Lambadi textile embroidery that has been a crucial part of these artisans' cultural identity for generations.

At the heart of Porgai is a dedicated group of women artisans who possess a wealth of knowledge and skill in their craft. Our mission is to empower these talented individuals by providing them with the resources, education, and platform needed to thrive in the modern marketplace. By harnessing their intricate embroidery techniques and natural dyeing practices, we not only preserve their ancient artistry but also help create sustainable livelihoods for these women and their families.

Each piece in the Porgai Artisan Collection tells a story—a story of resilience, creativity, and cultural pride. From the exquisite Mashru Silk Voile and Cotton Wrap Dress adorned with intricate back embroidery panels to the eco-friendly Turmeric Plant Dyed Pants, every item embodies the spirit of the artisans who create them. Our commitment to ethical production means that every stitch is imbued with care and passion, resulting in garments that are not only beautiful but also meaningful.

As you explore the Porgai Artisan Collection, you join us in our mission to uplift the women of the Sittilingi community, celebrating their skills while encouraging the revival of their rich textile heritage. Together, we can foster a greater appreciation for traditional craftsmanship and support sustainable fashion practices that respect both people and the planet.
