Sutraa, the Indian fashion exhibition and trade show, is making its way to Bengaluru on May 16 and 17 for an event at the Lalit Ashok hotel.

The fashion, jewellery, and beauty trade show will set up in Bengaluru this Wednesday and Thursday as a host of Indian designers display their products to both a business and consumer crowd. Anywhere between 1,000 and 5,000 visitors are expected to attend and there are several hundred stalls booked.

The Bengaluru edition of Sutraa will feature designers including Doll House, Selective by Pooja Sidhu, Soumodeep Dutta, I Am Trouble by KC, Anukriti, and Riddi Siddhi among others. Items that will be on display and for sale include clothing, jewellery, ethnic and fusion wear, menswear, homeware, skincare products, and gift items.

Earlier on in the month, on May 3 and 4, the show visited Hyderabad and, following Bengaluru, the show will travel to Guwahati, Raipur, Nagpur, and Indore in June.

Sutra exhibitions and trade shows have been running in India for the past eight years and the business is based in Kolkata. “Sutraa” means “to sew” in Sanskrit and the event’s aim is to link up fans of fashion and designers across India. The show travels to both Tier 1 and Tier 2 cities and also hosts “Wedding Sutraa” shows that focus on bridal wear.
