The brand “Pillari Dhoti”, which gains it’s name from the Weaving grandmaster Mr. Pillari Chetti, was started in 2023 by third generational aspirant who is vivid in expanding the heritage and pride of silk weaving to the wider current generation.
Our journey began in 2016, driven by a third-generation aspirant determined to bridge the gap between traditional handloom dhotis and contemporary styling. Fueled by the motto “connect youngsters with culture”, we embarked on this mission by pioneering the first Instagram page exclusively dedicated to dhotis back in 2016 during the founder’s final days of school.
Fast forward to the present, Pillari Dhoti emerges as a testament to perseverance and passion. Originating from the realms of traditional silk dhoti weavers, we now endeavor to captivate Gen Z, igniting their admiration for the timeless elegance of silk dhotis.
