The hush of sacred ink meeting skin. Ancient hands tracing meaning through line and symbol. Stories whispered across generations, now reimagined in cloth.

Saundh’s Inked Impressions invites you to experience a soulful reawakening.

We bring you a collection that draws from the age-old tradition of Godna — a tribal tattooing art once used to mark identity, protect spirit, and honour the feminine. Now, these ancestral motifs take new life on fabric, stitched into memory, draped in meaning.

We take you on a journey through the heartlands of India, where the ink was once ritual. We unfold stories carried by the Baiga, Santhal, Oraon, and Gond women — tales etched in skin as a rite of passage, symbols that mirrored their lives, their land, their love.

This season, the Saundh Woman listens deeply to those stories. She rediscovers her own strength in the patterns passed down by tribal hands, letting them flow through thread and textile. She carries the ink, not on her skin, but in her spirit.

Soft fabrics become her new canvas — silks that flow like memory, chinon that breathe like old tales retold. Intricate Godna-inspired prints spread across every silhouette, adorned with resham thread embroidery, crystal embellishments, and delicate tassel details, all hand-finished with care.

Each garment in Inked Impressions is a quiet homage. A bridge between the sacred and the contemporary. A revival of symbols that once protected, healed, and marked belonging.

The story unfolds through fluid silhouettes and mindful design:
• Kurta sets reimagined with artisanal detailing.
• Co-ord sets crafted for ease and quiet luxury.
• Effortless jumpsuits and versatile tunics.
• A statement saree that wears like poetry.
• This is clothing made for slow rituals, for everyday reverence.

The soul of this story is carried forward by three women who live the essence of heritage in motion.

Inked Impressions is an ode to women who wore their stories as skin.
A call to remember who we are, where we come from, and what lives on in us.

This is not nostalgia.
This is a living memory.
This is a ritual, revived.

Get ready to be inked.
