Needledust

Needledust is a designer footwear and accessories label built around handcrafted juttis, with heels, sandals, mules, kolhapairs, loafers, flats, handbags, clutches, and potlis rounding out the range. Its own copy frames the brand as a revival project, “sustaining finery of an heirloom” and bringing old royal moulds, hand embroidery, fine leather, and modern design sensibilities together. The store leans most strongly into occasion dressing and giftable ethnic fashion, but the catalog and captions also position the juttis, mules, and sandals as everyday, vacation, and workwear options.
