Cora is the colorful tote we designed to sit beside a Sandhya Garg dress: a pattern with enough life to lift a plain outfit, and enough ease to carry from the beach to the airport to Monday morning.

- A colorful pattern that works as the single accent in a neutral outfit or the finishing note on a printed one
- A shape one buyer describes as "not too stiff nor too flimsy", roomy enough for everything she carries in a day
- A designer detail at an accessible price: it is the easiest way to bring a Project Runway designer piece into your everyday wardrobe
Make memories by:
- Walking the shoreline with a towel, a book and a bottle of water
- Boarding a flight with a bag that goes straight from vacation dresses to the hotel pool
- Carrying your laptop and lunch to work in something with more personality than a black commuter bag

Answer- The print of the dress is exclusively designed by Sandhya herself. She draws inspiration from her travels and takes many days to research and design the print from scratch by drawing, sketching, painting, CAD and more before arriving at the final print. Every piece is designed in Los Angeles, then printed and made in India by skilled artisans, which makes sure our clothing is exclusive and top quality.
12.What is the Fabric and quality of your garments?
Answer- All of our fabrics are printed and embroidered in India. We work to ensure the finest quality of construction and never employ the use of child labor or unfair trade practices. Embellishments are meticulously hand-applied. This skill is very specialized and only performed by the greatest of heritage craftsman who have perfected their trade. We pride ourselves in supporting the Indian people (Sandhya herself comes from India and grew up around craft) at this very unique craft. The beauty of our fabrics and embellishments lie in their uniqueness and there may be slight variations in color and design. Because these pieces are 100 percent made by hand, slight variations in the placement of the patterns are to be expected (and, we think, part of the charm!)
13. Can I find your dresses at cheaper prices or do you go on sale?
Answer- We print a limited quantity of fabric and make a select number dresses with it so we rarely go on sale as we are already sold out and don't need to reduce prices.
