The atelier, in moving image.

Trisha Silks lives on Instagram in short films — six saree drapes, loom visits across Varanasi and Kanchipuram, real brides, behind-the-door atelier moments, and one-minute saree-care techniques. Watch them all on @trisha.silks.

Six drapes, one saree

Drape Diaries

Short films of the seedha pallu, nivi, lehenga-style, Bengali atpoure, Gujarati gol-pallu and the modern dhoti-saree drape, demonstrated on Trisha Silks weaves. Filmed at the Jubilee Hills atelier.

Inside the Loom

Visits to the looms we work with — the pit looms of Madanpura for kadhua Banarasi, the koorai weavers of Kanchipuram, the ikat dyers of Pochampally and the silver-zari interlock of Gadwal. The reels show the reverse of each saree, the karigar's hand, the dye vats.

Real brides · real trousseaux

Bridal Stories

With each bride's consent, we share the trousseau that was woven for her — the muhurtam Kanjivaram, the reception Banarasi, the sangeet organza, the engagement Chanderi. The reels include the blouse pattern, the jewellery pairing and the drape.

Behind the Jubilee Hills door

Atelier Moments

Unboxings of new arrivals, archive sarees being released to the floor, blouse fittings, the founders Amrita and Mayank Mishra walking patrons through fresh consignments from weaver clusters.

Saree Care, in 60 seconds

How to fold a Kanjivaram so the zari never cracks. How to store organza Banarasi without yellowing. How to revive a vintage saree from the trunk. Each reel is one technique, demonstrated on a real piece.

Video viewings · NRI patrons

From Around the World

Snippets of private video viewings with patrons in New York, London, Dubai, Singapore, Toronto and Sydney — the camera follows the saree, the patron chooses, the trousseau is packed.
