Home / About Us

One scratchy kurta
started all of this

Little Kurta is a six-person studio making custom outfits for little ones. We buy handloom cotton and khadi direct from weavers, cut every set in-house, and send it out with the tailor’s own size note inside the box.

How we got here

From one sewing table to eight thousand outfits

It began with a nephew who refused to wear anything stiff, and a promise that his first festive kurta would feel like a t-shirt. Word travelled through one family, then a school WhatsApp group, then a city.

2019

One tailor, one sewing table, twelve kurtas a month, all sold through WhatsApp.

2021

Free custom sizing became standard, because children rarely match a size chart.

2022

Started buying handloom cotton and khadi direct from weaver families.

Today

Six tailors, five collections, and 8,000 outfits shipped to eleven countries.

Why choose us

Built for children,
judged by parents

Four things we refuse to compromise on, from the loom we buy from to the seam that sits against their skin.

01

Breathable natural fabric

Handloom cotton and khadi bought direct from weavers, pre-washed twice so nothing itches, pinches or overheats through a long function.

Pre-washed

Loom-direct

02

Room to grow

Adjustable ties and elastic waists that stretch through a whole growth spurt, not one season. Free custom sizing on every order.

03

Made in small batches

Six in-house tailors, runs small enough that we still know which order is whose.

04

Skin-safe dyes

Azo-free colours and flat-locked seams, safe for newborn skin from the first wear.

Custom sizing

Made to your child's
measurements,
at no extra cost

Children rarely match a size chart. Send us three measurements and our tailors cut the set to fit, with hem and sleeve allowance left in for the next growth spurt.

Send three measurements

Chest, kurta length and waist, over WhatsApp or at checkout. Our guide shows exactly where to hold the tape.

We cut and hand-finish

One of our six tailors takes the order start to finish, then signs the size note that ships inside the box.

A fit you can adjust later

Hem and sleeve allowance left in, plus one free alteration within six months if they outgrow it early.
