Friday Feature: POOMPATTA KIDS


                    




Poompatta Kids is a brand of  Indian Inspired clothing line for girls by Smitha Menon a decade ago.  Poompatta means a butterfly in Malayalam. Smitha had always wanted to be in the fashion designing scenario ands credits her artist father and  mother who designed all Smitha's dresses when she was a child. Inspiration to  create beautiful dresses for her bubby daughter is also one of the reasons Smitha finds added joy!


                            




            






In her own words, Smitha says, " Each piece goes through immense thought and process, hoping to turn them into heirloom pieces that can be cherished through generations. Poompatta would have been impossible without my dear friend Deepak VK, who helps me materialize the idea. The label is currently working on colorful, hand made hair accessories and an all organic infant line. My future dream is to work closely with all the artisans, make their lives better through every print, embroidery and applique that creates a 'Poompatta'".
