Kolkata to Ranchi Journey, 52-Year-Old Usha Creates Designer Blouses Worth Up to 5000 Rupees

Originally from Kolkata, Usha has built a strong identity in Ranchi through her own efforts, now boasting over 20,000 loyal customers and selling designer blouses for up to 5,000 rupees.

Carving out a distinct space in the fashion world through sheer dedication, Usha originally hails from Kolkata but has been based in Ranchi for a long time. At the very beginning of her journey, she started out by stitching blouses right from her home. Over time, she realized that women are drawn not just to basic tailoring, but to fresh and stylish designs. Driven by this vision, she began designing blouses on her own, and today at the age of 52, she is completely self-reliant and running a successful venture.

Two Decades of Hard Work and Customer Trust

Usha shares that 20 years ago, the era of widespread internet and social media did not exist. Back then, she personally traveled to cities like Mumbai and Kolkata to select the best fabrics and learn new designs to craft them herself. Today, she boasts a loyal base of over 20,000 patent customers. According to her, designer blouses have become the top choice for women today, who are gladly willing to pay up to ₹5,000 for them without hesitation.

Surviving for so many years without any ads and building a base of 20,000 loyal customers is no small feat. This is the true power of word-of-mouth.

Rohan, you are so right. My mother has been going to the same tailor auntie for years, whom everyone knows only by word of mouth.
