Designs from Delhi: Medha Bansal on her love for all things bold and beautiful

A graduate from NIFT Delhi, Medha Bansal has always been passionate about creating eccentric pieces of work with fabrics and colours; thus evolved her clothing line medhaMahati Salike sits for a tete-a-tete with the designer.

With interest in art and design since school, the designer began her brand medha in 2017 in Delhi. She took the plunge with a workshop that laid the foundation for her own brand. Three years later, her team has grown in number with hand embroiderers and crafters, who do the finishing, work with kathan fabrics (among others) and masterjis and tailors. The work on garments is hand intensive and most importantly made with love, she adds.


Speaking about the progression of her aesthetic, Medha says, “My aesthetic evolved over time. When I was in fashion school, we visited a craft cluster in Rajasthan where artisans create block prints, embroidery and weaving. I have always been fascinated by colours and embroideries.” She adds that on her visit to Kutch exploring 14 different villages, she was inspired by the bold and rich use of colours.


The brand participates in a lot of exhibits and that;s usually where they garner attention, and customers. The speciality of the collection is the use of Indian techniques in a contemporary manner. They do not usually use the same colours, instead incorporating patch works, kathans, contrast and detailing on the garments. One can explore a variety of work from casuals to formals and party wear in vivacious styles. Customisation is on the cards, and in some good news post-lockdown, the store is set to be reopened in the month of June. 

Price Range: 7000/- to 1 lakh

Duration: 2 – 3 weeks

Dipsy Malli Malli Moisturiser Price: 1,999 Dipsy’s debut skincare launch, Malli Malli, brings together Indian botanicals and modern skincare science in a thoughtfully formulated everyday moisturiser. Designed for all skin types and suitable for both men and women, the lightweight formula delivers a soft matte finish without leaving behind any greasy residue, making it especially well-suited to India’s humid weather. At the heart of the formulation is coriander seed oil, a native ingredient known for its antioxidant-rich, soothing and brightening properties. It is complemented by kokum butter and mango butter, which provide deep yet non-comedogenic hydration while helping maintain the skin’s moisture barrier. Neroli oil adds calming and skin-conditioning benefits, along with a subtle natural floral scent that enhances the application experience. What makes Malli Malli stand out is its claim of up to 48 hours of hydration while maintaining a breathable, weightless feel. It also doubles as a makeup primer, creating a smooth canvas that helps makeup sit comfortably throughout the day. The texture absorbs quickly, leaving skin feeling soft, balanced and refreshed rather than heavy or sticky.
