In Pune where fast fashion often overshadows tradition, A Charkha Story is a shop for authentic, sustainable and stylish Khadi clothing. Located on Senapati Bapat Road, Pune, this government certified shop is reinventing Khadi for the modern fashion.
Recently, Urbanly took Bhairavi Wagh-Palande on a shopping spree at A Charkha Story. Bhairavi is an architect, art café owner, and State Vice President of the Bharatiya Janata Yuva Morcha! Known for her liking towards Khadi and handloom clothing, Bhairavi found the store’s collection perfectly in line with her aesthetic and values.
What sets A Charkha Story apart is its commitment to authenticity. Certified by the Khadi & Village Industries Commission (KVIC) and the Ministry of MSME, Government of India, this shop ensures that every piece is genuinely handspun and handwoven. This dedication supports rural artisans and preserves India’s rich textile heritage.
The women’s collection here has a range of sarees crafted from cotton, tussar silk, and mulberry silk; all handwoven. These sarees are not just garments but narratives of craftsmanship. The store has kurtis, coats, tops, trousers and stoles. All these collections feature intricate art forms like Kantha, Warli, and Kalamkari, sourced from various parts of India.
Beyond clothing, A Charkha Story offers handmade towels, handkerchiefs, napkins, purses, and hair accessories, making it a one-stop shop for sustainable lifestyle products.
For those in Pune seeking genuine Khadi in modern styles, A Charkha Story is the destination. Experience the fusion of tradition and contemporary fashion, and embrace the elegance of Khadi.
