Women's ethnic wear at Taroob is made for women who want their wardrobe to carry meaning alongside style. Every piece in this collection is handcrafted by artisans working in Amritsar, using fabrics that have been woven and embellished using traditional techniques that take years to learn and cannot be replicated by machine. What you find here is not seasonal fashion. It is clothing that draws from centuries of Indian textile tradition and is designed to last, to be passed on, and to be worn at every occasion that matters.
The collection spans co-ord and kurta sets, capes, kaftans and dresses, shawls, pure Pashmina shawls, blazers and long coats, and velvet co-ords. Whether you are dressing for a wedding reception, a festival celebration, a corporate gifting occasion, or simply want clothing that is beautiful enough to reach for every day, Taroob's women's ethnic wear collection has something crafted for that moment.
What Makes Taroob Women's Ethnic Wear Different?
At most fashion brands, the phrase "handcrafted" is marketing language. At Taroob, it is a description of the actual production process. Every garment begins with fabrics that are selected for their quality: handwoven wool bases, fine silk satins, Pashmina sourced from Kashmir, and velvet that holds embellishment without pilling or distorting over time. The karigar artisans who cut, embroider, and finish these pieces are the same craftspeople whose families have worked in this tradition for generations. You will find their profiles on the Karigar page, because Taroob believes the people behind the clothing are worth knowing.
Pattern making at Taroob is done by hand. Full grain patterns are cut for every standard size so that the fit is consistent and the proportions are correct across every body type. Buttons are attached by hand for strength and durability rather than by machine. These are small details that most customers never notice until a garment starts to fail, and Taroob's pieces simply do not fail in those ways.
The Range: Everything in Women's Ethnic Wear at Taroob
Co-ord and Kurta Sets
The women's co-ord and kurta sets are the centrepiece of the collection. These are complete looks made as a coordinated pair: a kurta or top designed alongside its matching bottom, so the proportions, fabric, and embellishment work together rather than needing to be assembled. Available in printed, embroidered, and Kalamkari work, these sets suit both festive occasions and the kind of meeting or dinner where you want to look considered without effort. The velvet co-ord sets are particularly sought after for winter weddings and evening receptions, where the depth of velvet and the richness of hand embellishment together create a look that reads as luxury without announcing it.
Capes
Taroob's women's capes are among the most recognised pieces in the collection, and for good reason. They are made on a wool base fabric that is handwoven, then hand embellished using embroidery techniques including Puff Embroidery, Kalamkari, and Tasseling. The cape as a silhouette works across seasons because it layers without constricting and it photographs beautifully at any occasion. Customers reach for these at wedding functions, as statement outerwear for travel, and as gifts for women who have everything and can still be surprised by something genuinely beautiful.
Kaftans and Dresses
The kaftans and dresses in the women's ethnic wear collection bring the ease of a single-piece garment to the Indian aesthetic. These are not resort kaftans in the Western sense. They carry embroidery, block print, or fine textile work, and they are made to be worn at celebrations, at festive dinners, and at the kinds of gatherings where you want ease of dressing without sacrificing the appearance of effort. Light enough for summer functions and layerable for cooler months, these pieces answer the question of what to wear when you want to look dressed without feeling overdressed.
Shawls, Stoles, and Pure Pashmina
The shawls collection and pure Pashmina shawls are two of the most gifted categories in the store. A Taroob shawl is made to be worn but also to be given: at weddings, as corporate gifts, as anniversary tokens, and as the kind of gift that communicates care and quality without needing explanation. Pashmina sourced from Kashmir is the finest natural fibre in the collection. It is warm without weight, soft against the skin, and it becomes more beautiful with wear rather than degrading with use. Many customers return specifically to gift these shawls to mothers, mothers-in-law, and women in their lives whose taste they respect. The stoles and scarves in softer, everyday weights are equally popular as personal pieces.
Blazers and Long Coats
For women who want the structure of tailoring alongside the richness of Indian fabric, the blazers and long coats answer that need precisely. These are pieces designed to wear over ethnic separates or even Western formal wear, bringing the Taroob sensibility, which is handwork, quality fabric, and considered proportion, into the category of outerwear. The long coats, in particular, work as a complete statement piece over a kurta or worn open over a dress.
Occasions: When to Wear Women's Ethnic Wear from Taroob
Women's ethnic wear from Taroob is made for real occasions, not for lookbooks. The most common questions customers ask when browsing are about which pieces suit specific events, so this is addressed directly below.
For wedding functions in India and abroad, the co-ord sets, velvet pieces, and capes are all appropriate and will hold their own alongside more traditional bridal party wear. For international Indian weddings where guests may be flying in from the UK, UAE, Australia, or North America, Taroob pieces carry beautifully in luggage and arrive without needing steam or pressing, because quality fabrics behave. For gifting at weddings, the shawl and Pashmina ranges and the wedding collection offer options at several price points.
For festival dressing at Diwali, Navratri, Eid, and Baisakhi, the printed and embroidered kurta sets are the most versatile choice because they work for both the daytime family occasion and the evening celebration without needing to change. For corporate events, gifting occasions, and formal cultural gatherings where ethnic wear is appropriate and expected, the more structured blazers, long coats, and coordinated sets provide that formal register without the stiffness of formal Western wear.
For everyday ethnic wear that is comfortable enough to actually reach for regularly rather than reserved for occasions, the lighter kurta sets, printed co-ords in cotton and silk satin, and the stoles as accessories make the collection genuinely wearable as part of a working wardrobe.
Care and Fabric Information
All Taroob garments are made with signature fine fabrics designed for longevity. The care instruction for every piece is dry clean only. This is not a restriction that reduces the garments; it is what maintains the embellishment, the fabric structure, and the colour over years of wear. Pashmina and wool-based pieces should be stored folded rather than hung, ideally with a cedar block to protect natural fibres from moths. The embellishments on capes and velvet pieces are hand-attached specifically for durability, and with proper care, these pieces will not lose beads, thread, or shape in normal use.
Taroob offers size guidance through the size chart on the website, and because patterns are cut by hand in full grain for each size, the fit is consistent. If you are between sizes or are shopping for a gift and are unsure of fit, Taroob's customer care team can advise on sizing before purchase.
Shipping, Returns, and Exchange
Taroob ships worldwide with optimised international shipping so that customers in the UAE, UK, USA, Australia, and across Europe can order with the same confidence as domestic customers. The exchange policy applies to scarves and shawls. For garments, Taroob does not offer returns or exchanges but provides detailed size guidance to ensure the right choice before purchase. If you have specific questions about a garment before ordering, the team is available through the contact page.
Taroob's Women's Ethnic Wear as a Gift
Many of the most meaningful purchases on this page are gifts. A Taroob piece arrives in packaging that communicates the quality of what is inside, and the garments themselves are the kind that recipients recognise immediately as something considered and special. If you are shopping for a woman who already has beautiful clothes, the Pashmina shawls, the capes, and the velvet co-ords are the categories where Taroob most consistently produces something she will not already own. The wedding collection and gift shop offer curated options for gifting at specific occasions.
If you are buying women's ethnic wear as a corporate gift or for a large group at a wedding or celebration, Taroob offers corporate gifting options through the contact page with guidance on bulk pricing and presentation.
