Hey r/startups!
I’m a Noida-based investor looking to co-found a women’s ethnic/Indian clothing brand and I’m on the hunt for the right creative partner to build something meaningful together.
What I’m bringing to the table:
• ₹15 lakhs in seed funding
• Equity stake for the right partner
• Commitment to building a real, scalable brand
Who I’m looking for:
Someone who eats, sleeps, and breathes fashion. Ideally:
• A graduate from NIFT or a fashion design background
• OR someone with a sharp, demonstrable fashion sense and a genuine design portfolio
• Someone who has already been dreaming of starting their own label but has been held back by funding
• Passion for Indian/ethnic women’s wear — think contemporary kurtas, fusion silhouettes, bridal, festwear, or whatever niche you’re obsessed with
Delhi NCR candidates will be given preference given proximity for meetings and collaboration.
How this works:
This isn’t a blind cheque. I’d want to meet in person, hear your vision, see your designs or mood boards, and understand what kind of brand you want to build. If we’re aligned — creatively and professionally — we sit down, structure the deal, and get to work.
No formal process. Just a conversation first.
Interested?
Drop me a DM with a brief intro — who you are, what kind of brand you envision, and ideally a portfolio or some examples of your work/taste. Even Instagram saves and mood boards work — I just want to see how you think.
Let’s build something beautiful. 🤝
