New Delhi [India], June 20: VIRGIO, the trend-first sustainable fashion brand redefining how fashion is made and experienced, announces the launch of Beyond The Curve — a first-of-its-kind, invite-only fashion line for curvy women, co-created with actor and fashion advocate Anjali Anand. The line brings high-quality, on-trend fashion to sizes above XL–an area that’s long been overlooked.

“Beyond The Curve was born from listening — to every woman who’s ever felt ignored by the rack. We didn’t want to just add sizes. We wanted to rethink how sizing, style, and self-expression work for real bodies. And like everything at VIRGIO, BTC follows our core ecosystem of using technology, community data, and on-demand production to build fashion that’s both sustainable and trend-first,” says Amar Nagaram, Founder & CEO of VIRGIO.

Unlike traditional launches, Beyond The Curve follows an invite-only model. Customers joined the waitlist to receive a personal invite code, which unlocked access to the collection. This intentional model ensures thoughtful production, avoiding overstock and waste, while creating an exclusive community that has often been overlooked.

At the heart of this launch is Anjali Anand, a celebrated voice for body inclusivity and the co-creator of the line. Having grown up curvy in an industry that rarely made space for her, Anjali brings raw authenticity, lived experience, and unfiltered passion to the project. She has been deeply involved in every aspect — from fittings and fabric trials to storytelling and community engagement.

“I’ve spent years being told what not to wear. Beyond The Curve is my answer to that — bold, unapologetic, and made for every woman who’s ever felt unseen. With VIRGIO, I didn’t just co-create clothes. We built a space we never had growing up.” says Anjali Anand.

Beyond The Curve marks the start of a long-term commitment from VIRGIO to expand fashion’s boundaries — literally and culturally. Future drops will continue to be community-led, offering trend-forward designs tailored for curvier bodies, while maintaining VIRGIO’s sustainability-first ethos.

Kanchipuram (Tamil Nadu) [India], June 20: In the vibrant and heritage-rich world of Indian textiles, OLDZARI.COM has carved out a unique space as the first-ever online platform dedicated to buying used or old pure zari sarees and other zari-based items across India. What began as a local initiative has grown into a trusted national brand that empowers households to unlock the hidden value of their traditional zari treasures.

A Vision Rooted in Heritage

Founded in 2020 by Ganesh Sah M, a seasoned expert in the traditional silk industry of Kanchipuram, OLDZARI.COM was born out of a simple yet powerful idea-to offer a reliable and respectful way for families to sell their old Kanjivaram, Mysore Silk, Banaras Silk or any zari items. Recognizing the sentimental and financial value woven into these heirlooms, the platform was built with transparency, trust, and customer comfort at its core.

Over the past five years, OLDZARI.COM has built a solid reputation in the online marketplace by upholding these principles. Thousands of customers from cities like Chennai, Bengaluru, Delhi, Hyderabad, and beyond have turned to OLDZARI.COM as their go-to solution for monetizing vintage sarees, zari blouses, dhotis, and other precious garments often stored away for generations. The company’s commitment to honest dealings and cultural sensitivity has earned them a loyal customer base and widespread acclaim.

What sets OLDZARI.COM apart is its pioneering service model, which ensures convenience and trust at every step. One of the standout features is the free door pickup service, allowing customers to sell their zari items without the hassle of visiting a store or couriering expensive garments on their own. Upon pickup, the items undergo a non-invasive zari purity test, ensuring that no damage is done to the sarees during verification. This method helps determine the exact composition and value of the zari used.

Adding to the transparency, every seller receives a detailed test report explaining the purity and final value of their items. If the customer is satisfied, payment is processed quickly. If not, OLDZARI.COM ensures a free return of the items, reinforcing their no-obligation policy and respect for customer choice.

National Recognition and Customer Trust

This unique model of ethical buying, coupled with exceptional customer care, has helped OLDZARI.COM win the Award of Excellence in Purchase of Vintage Wedding Sarees, a prestigious recognition that highlights the brand’s impact and innovation in the field of heritage textile commerce.

The success of OLDZARI.COM is also a testament to Ganesh Sah’s deep understanding of the zari and silk ecosystem. Hailing from the renowned weaving town of Kanchipuram, he has seen firsthand the value and sentiment attached to each zari thread. By integrating traditional expertise with modern technology, he established a platform that honors cultural heritage while enabling families across India to unlock the preserved value of their heirloom textiles.

Today, OLDZARI.COM is more than just a business-it’s a bridge between the past and the present. It offers a dignified solution to people who wish to part with their vintage garments without worry or confusion. It also plays a crucial role in promoting sustainability by recycling and reusing valuable zari materials that might otherwise go to waste.

As the platform continues to grow, it remains committed to its founding values: honesty, cultural respect, and customer empowerment. With ongoing innovations in testing, logistics, and customer outreach, OLDZARI.COM is poised to lead the vintage zari marketplace for years to come.

In an age where fast fashion often overshadows traditional craftsmanship, OLDZARI.COM stands tall as a reminder of the enduring value of India’s textile heritage-and the modern solutions that can help preserve it.

So, Where Can You Sell Old Zari Sarees?

If you’re holding on to a pure zari Kanjivaram, Mysore Silk, Banaras Silk Saree, blouse, or dhoti that deserves a second life, OLDZARI.COM is your answer. It provides the most secure, respectful, and transparent way to sell old zari garments in India today. With no hidden charges, free testing, and zero pressure to sell, it’s a platform built on trust.

In a saturated personal care market often dominated by products catering to either toddlers or adults, two women entrepreneurs–Sonam Daruka and Shweta Sinha–are rewriting the narrative with TIVA, India’s first skincare brand created exclusively for girls aged 8 to 12.

Co-founded by Sonam Daruka, a serial entrepreneur and mother of a 7-year-old, and Shweta Sinha, an analytics leader and mother to an 8-year-old, TIVA is more than just a business venture. It is a purpose-led brand born out of a personal insight and a deep understanding of an underserved yet critical age group–pre-teen girls.

“We grew up in a time when skincare meant sharing the same soap with everyone in the family. But today’s girls are evolving faster–they’re curious, expressive, and ready for self-care. Yet, the market has very little that speaks directly to them,” says Sonam.

The Genesis of TIVA

The inspiration for TIVA came from their shared experiences as mothers and professionals. While navigating the parenting journey, Sonam and Shweta noticed a recurring gap: a lack of safe, age-appropriate personal care products tailored for young girls transitioning from childhood to adolescence. Existing brands were either too babyish or too mature, leaving tweens overlooked in a booming Rs8000+ crore personal care market.

TIVA as a Brand with a Mission

Launched with a vision to empower young girls through self-care, TIVA is designed to be gentle, fun, and empowering. The brand focuses on dermatologist-tested, chemical-free formulations made specifically for tween skin, combining natural ingredients with vibrant packaging and affirming messages.

For girls, TIVA offers ownership and identity in their self-care routines–products that feel made just for them. For parents, especially mothers, it offers trust and safety–products they can confidently introduce to their daughters.

Creating a Community, Not Just a Product Line

What distinguishes TIVA is not just the innovation in its products but the community it is building. With initiatives like TIVA TV, the brand offers a digital platform for girls to explore self-expression and creativity. This thoughtful approach is resonating with a growing tribe of modern Indian parents who are mindful of not just what their children use, but why.

“TIVA is a celebration of every girl’s journey–her confidence, her curiosity, and her dreams,” adds Shweta.

Market Opportunity & Brand Differentiation

As India’s Gen Alpha cohort continues to expand, so does the demand for products tailored to their unique lifestyles. TIVA is strategically positioned at the intersection of wellness, identity, and social good. Its first-mover advantage in the tween personal care category gives it a competitive edge in a market ripe for disruption.

Availability & Outreach

TIVA products are currently available via Amazon India, the brand’s official website, and its fast-growing Instagram community. The brand is also actively engaging customers through storytelling and influencer collaborations.

The upcoming 1000-acre SWIFT City, a new IT hub near Sarjapur, will further elevate the area’s appeal, positioning it as a prime destination for working professionals. This large development will be just 3.5 Km from Abhee Aaria.

Designed with a focus on holistic living, Abhee Aaria features a unique “breathe-friendly” architecture, including a two-acre Central Forest, elevated walkways, a pet park, a heated swimming pool, and two massive clubhouses. With 85% open spaces across five 32-storey towers, it provides a luxurious and sustainable lifestyle. Development comes with 1,2 and large 3 Bed residences which are 3 sides open for best breathing experience.

“Our vision with Abhee Aaria is to create an integrated ecosystem of luxury residences, surrounded by nature. The overwhelming pre-launch response has inspired us to open up new inventory for buyers seeking homes that offer both comfort and an enriching lifestyle,” said Nagaraj Reddy, Managing Director of Abhee Ventures.

Having delivered over 16 successful projects in recent years, Abhee Ventures is now poised to redefine the Bangalore skyline with new landmark developments.
