Empowering Plus-Size Women Through Fashion: The Journey of Kavita Muhale, founder of Dhriti Garments

In 2014, Kavita Muhale embarked on a journey that would change the face of plus-size ethnic fashion in India. With a clear vision and unwavering determination, she founded Dhriti Garments, a clothing brand dedicated to plus-size ethnic wear for women. What started in a small flat has now grown into a globally recognized label, providing stylish, comfortable, and elegant ethnic clothing for women of all sizes.

The inspiration behind Dhriti Garments stemmed from a simple observation—there was a glaring gap in the fashion industry when it came to plus-size ethnic wear. Kavita, driven by a mission to make every woman feel confident and beautiful in her own skin, decided to take matters into her own hands. She started designing outfits that celebrated curves rather than hiding them, focusing on quality fabrics, flattering silhouettes, and authentic Indian designs.

Over the years, Dhriti Garments has expanded its offerings to include a wide range of ethnic wear such as kurta sets, lehengas, anarkalis, sarees, and festive wear, all tailored exclusively for plus-size women. The brand emphasizes inclusivity and body positivity, setting a new benchmark in the Indian fashion industry. Each piece is designed with a deep understanding of comfort and style, ensuring women no longer have to compromise between the two.

Kavita Mulahe has played a remarkable role in empowering other women by providing them with reselling opportunities, helping them become financially independent and self-reliant. Her efforts have created a positive ripple effect, uplifting many aspiring women entrepreneurs.

She also expresses deep gratitude to her husband Gaurav Muhale who has been a constant source of support and strength throughout her journey. His belief in her vision and unwavering encouragement have been instrumental in her success.

Today, Dhriti Garments proudly delivers its creations worldwide, reaching customers in countries like the USA, UK, Canada, Australia, and the Middle East. Despite its international reach, the brand remains rooted in its values and craftsmanship.

The brand’s physical store is located at Shop #3, 110/2 Bairathi Colony (Dashmesh Dwar), Indore, where customers can experience personalized service and explore the full range of collections. The store has become a destination for many plus-size women looking for well-fitting and fashionable ethnic wear.

Kavita Muhale’s journey is a true testament to entrepreneurial spirit and social impact. Through Dhriti Garments, she has not only built a successful business but also empowered thousands of women to embrace their bodies and wear their culture with pride. With continued innovation and a strong commitment to inclusivity, Dhriti Garments is redefining ethnic fashion—one size at a time.
