Curating a potpourri of passionate works is what makes us exquisite. Creators Divya Poddar and Sunaina Jalan started Istara with a eccentric vision.

Istara is a story of two best friends who met after many years and decided to bring together their passion for design and aesthetics to create a sophisticated womenswear brand. We only use beautifully colored, handcrafted fabrics from across the country to make clothes with fun silhouettes and traditional motifs.
