Cosa fa Binks

Getting clothes tailor-made is very common in India, especially for women. Saree blouses have to be tailor-made always due to their fitted nature & the non-stretchiness of typical Indian fabrics. The tailoring market however, hasn't evolved at all. It is highly fragmented with a low NPS. The end user experience demands a significant amount of the customer's time, involving visits to a physical shop & avoidable back & forth. This is increasingly unviable for busy urban Indian women. We make it super easy by letting women place an order online, get fitted at the comfort of their homes, help them with styling their fabric & deliver the made-to-measure clothes directly to their doorstep.

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We make tailor-made saree blouses and other fitted Indian garments that women order online. Customers get measured at home, pick fabric with our styling help, and receive made-to-measure clothes delivered to their doorstep. We eliminate the typical visits, time loss, and mismatches of traditional tailoring by closing the loop digitally and controlling manufacturing directly.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live in Bengaluru, India, where the company is also based.

Explain your decision regarding location.

Bengaluru is a major tech and fashion hub with access to skilled labor, tailors, and suppliers. It lets us directly connect with garment factories and urban women, who are our primary customers.
