Rishitha Fashions & Creations

Tucked away in Venkata Ramana Colony is Rishitha Fashions & Creations. It’s part of the Khairatabad area. Our shop number is 6-3-595/32/1. We do a lot of stitching and designing here. It's mostly local ladies coming in with their own ideas. We take measurements and try to get things done on time. Sometimes we run late if there's a power cut or something. That’s just how it goes in Hyderabad. The colony is quiet compared to the main road. We started small and stayed that way. There are sewing machines running most of the day. The scrap fabric piles up in the corners. We make dresses and blouses and whatever else people ask for. My hands are usually covered in chalk marks from marking patterns. It’s not a big corporate place. Just a few of us working together. People know us by name around here. We don't do much advertising. Mostly it’s just neighbors telling each other about us. We’ve been at this 500004 address for a while now. The shop is small but we make it work. We have a few racks of ready stuff too if someone is in a hurry. Sometimes people bring in old clothes to get them fixed. We do that too. It’s better than throwing things away. The light in the shop isn't the best in the evening but we manage. We’ve seen kids grow up and now they bring their own clothes here. We just do our best with what we have.
