About IshqME :

A recently launched brand, IshqME is designed for the contemporary woman with international sensibilities and eclectic tastes. Just as in art or music, our designs know no boundaries and thus come in a myriad of shades right from elements of nature to far flung corners of the world.

All our designs, be it apparel, bags & jewellery are original designs inspired by women with global sensibilities. Bags are hand crafted mostly by homemakers who have made looking after their family a priority without giving up their own passion. The IshqME jewellery is made by Indian Karigars, which helps in preserving their way of life while creating pieces of global appeal. Each apparel piece is thus as unique as the women who adorn them, embracing their differences and imperfections with all that’s good.

We ensure that there is no compromise on the quality, which is on par with international standards. Who says that you save the best for last when you can wear it everyday!
