About the Founder :

Ridhima's passion for supporting women artisans and preserving local arts has led to the creation of Talmel, a brand that offers a stunning collection of handcrafted dupattas, men and women kurta sets, and fashion jewelry. The brand's mission is to generate sustainable livelihoods for women artisans and promote the diverse art forms of different Indian states. Talmel is more than just a business, it's a post-pandemic response to support those in need and empower women through their skills and creativity. As a development communication professional, Ridhima has a deep understanding of the importance of supporting local communities and creating opportunities for marginalized groups. With Talmel, she has created a platform for these artisans to showcase their talents and connect with a wider audience. By choosing Talmel, customers can not only own beautifully crafted pieces but also support a cause that is close to Ridhima’s heart !

Talmel started as a Dupatta Brand, Why?

One of the advantages of Dupattas is that they can add a touch of elegance and sophistication to any plain outfit. Dupattas come in various styles and designs, from vibrant colors to intricate embroidery and embellishments. A carefully chosen Dupatta can transform a simple outfit into a stunning ensemble.

Another advantage of Dupattas is that they can be passed down from generation to generation, making them an excellent investment. A high-quality Dupatta can last for years and can become a family heirloom.

With one outfit, you can create multiple looks by pairing it with different Dupattas. Depending on the occasion, you can select a Dupatta that complements the outfit and adds to the overall look. For example, a heavily embellished Dupatta can be worn for a wedding or a formal event, while a lighter Dupatta with minimal work can be worn for a casual gathering.

In conclusion, Dupattas are a versatile accessory that can add style and elegance to any outfit. They are an investment piece that can be passed down from generation to generation and can create multiple looks with just one outfit. So, if you're a fan of handcrafted and elegant Dupattas, then you're in good company !
