"I believe beauty is amorphous and achromatic until shaped by an artisan's touch, transforming it into something truly aesthetic. Beauty then comes into being. To me, designing is an art inspired by the beauty of nature and the vibrancy of life. My goal is to infuse femininity, quality, and value into every piece, empowering you to express yourself authentically. A well-crafted garment holds a unique charm, it carries an emotional connection to moments, events, or special occasions, making it more than just clothing." - Engeleena Padyachi

​ENGELEENA is driven by a passion to support and empower women through her creative endeavours. Her mission is to celebrate and preserve the art of weaving, promote the versatility of traditional handloom fabrics, and contribute to the livelihoods of weavers while uplifting rural women. With a deep commitment to engaging with handloom clusters across India, she recognizes the unique human touch and emotional connection embodied in hand-woven fabrics.​

​"This is an enlightening journey for me. This mission has allowed me to reconnect with my ancestral motherland and cherish the craft of my great-grandmother". - Engeleena Padyachi.​
