What to know about Tigra Tigra

Gujarat artisans set their own prices

Garments are developed with artisan-owned workshops in Gujarat — mashroo silk weavers in Old Patan, dye masters in Bhuj and Ahmedabad, and home-based embroiderers paid directly.

Handwork is the whole proposition

Figurative embroidery, aari work, applique and hand-woven mashroo silk explain the high price tier more than any technical fabric or heavy branding.

Workwear shapes, unexpected surfaces

Jackets, shirts, blouses and co-ord sets keep plain heritage-workwear lines, so the embroidery and low-impact dyeing carry the avant-garde side.

How Tigra Tigra fits

Overall fit

slightly large

Discussion is limited, but the label's handwoven and hand-embroidered pieces are generally described as cut loose and relaxed rather than tailored, so they tend to wear a touch larger than a standard fit.

Tip: Most people can take their usual size for the intended relaxed drape, and size down one if you want anything close to a fitted look.
