MORE ABOUT MAYA
Delhiwear, the brand by its namesake wants to serve the city and the local philosophy of it. However, it has always offered more than that, in terms of value and functionality.
Started by people who are not from the clothing industry or the product they sell but knew one thing or another about the narrative they choose to work on or the story they were telling.
Delhiwear which started as a small initiative to promote the gap between influenced culture & unique/native story which India was ready to offer. we took a direction where we were truly able to contribute to the whole community where at the beginning it was all about representing another concept instead of taking your take on it.
From the initial product VARDI till the later Dukaan Trench. We have been focused on working as a product company which just happens to serve a broad community of Streetwear, Workwear, business casual and by the nature of it Occasional wear.
This approach of simplicity or hacking every situation with just a simple trick of styling that represented the city which we are the namesake of.
Dukaan
more about dukaan can be found in our other detailed articles.
The term (especially in the northern part of the country) means a shop or any place you sell stuff from. However, it was about emotion and the right trigger which this term gives to the people as most of our audience can relate to this being from either from their house / family background or just with an affiliation.
This also lets us sync our philosophy which was from the start, about MOH MAYA MOH PROBLEMS
