History

Lashkaraa began an e-commerce retail start-up in 2014, spearheaded by Sumeer Kaur with the aim to redefine her Indian roots with a contemporary essence. The initial launch was on October 1, 2013, when the company started offering its unique range of Indian ethnic wear focusing on the Bridal collection. Eventually, the company expanded its product listings by adding the creations of several avant-garde designers to its in-house collections.

Lashkaraa, as a conscious brand, works closely with local artisans, providing them with materials and opportunities to demonstrate their skills and knowledge of Indian design. This, in turn, creates jobs for local artisans eager to expand their reach.

Products

Lashkaraa offers a wide range of designer Indian Ethnic apparel such as Salwar Kameez, Sarees, Lehenga Cholis, Sherwanis, and Suits. The vast collection is an amalgamation of various Indian styles with a contemporary touch ideal for different occasions be it casual, festive, bridal, or party.
