The Most Covetable Designer Juttis for the Modern Bride
Bridal shoes are no longer an afterthought, and these labels will ensure you find The One.
Whether you’re a bride curating looks for every ceremony and festivity at your big day or just someone who loves a touch of craftsmanship beneath her feet, there’s a jutti (or two) for every mood, moment, and outfit. From reimagined classics to contemporary collaborations, there are a few homegrown labels that are giving Indian footwear a luxurious update. They are combining heritage techniques with modern flair.
Homegrown Designer Juttis For Bride
Needledust
Founded by Shirin Mann, Needledust is known for handcrafted juttis and sliders. They offer a variety of options—from floral appliqué to pearl beading—which are festive and wearable in equal measure. For brides drawn to maximalist options, the brand’s recent capsule collection with Abhinav Mishra features mirror works styles that would work well beyond the wedding season.
Rimzim Dadu
Known for reimagining materials and reverse-engineering fabrics, designer Rimzim Dadu offers styles for all kinds of brides. The shoes are made from metallic cord, which has been hand-manipulated to create the corrugated texture of the shoes. Manifest recommends: the fringe heels in fuchsia for your sangeet or a sit-down dinner.
Anaar
Anaar understands the importance of attention to detail and values a bride who believes in serving multiple looks in one evening. The brand’s wedges and classic sneakers are dressed up in a mix of Aari, Zardozi embroidery, and Gota work...making them the perfect choice for those who love to stand out.
Anita Dongre
Quietly aligning with a bride who leads with values, Anita Dongre’s bridal footwear offers mid-block heels, mules, and wedges. These are the kind of shoes you’d love to rewear beyond your wedding day. All handcrafted, consider the Zardozi hand-embroidered Jaamini mules or the hand-painted Pichhwai Heels in black for your cocktail night.
Fizzy Goblet
By blending handcrafted techniques with modern design elements, Fizzy Goblet adds subtle texture to its pieces. The brand boasts a versatile repertoire of styles including heels, sliders, flats, Kolhapuris, and unique brogue and sneaker juttis. From Priyanka Chopra Jonas to Bhumi Pednekar—everyone is a loyal patron of the brand.
Aprajita Toor
Born from a personal quest for the right fit, Aprajita Toor’s label is known to reimagine classic silhouettes. The Umrao Janes Kundans—embellished with Zardozi, sequins, pearls and fine handwork—are inspired from classic Mary Janes. The brand has also elevated the traditional Kolhapuris with block heels, and they even offer styles with detachable bows in satin, velvet, or organza for subtle personalisation.
