The Passionate Saga of a Dream Luxury Brand

Sharing her inspiration behind venturing into the business arena, she says that she has been passionate about her dreams which channelled her expertise to transform an idea born out of a need into a successful business idea that’s making its mark big in the market today. She adds, “I, being a mother, an entrepreneur, and a dream-maker, started my journey after the birth of my first child. I found my calling only after I became a mother. With a set of new responsibilities added to my life, I took a road that’s less travelled or even imagined by many. Along with taking care of my little one as well as my family, I started this venture with a relentless and rigorous passion. With dreams in my heart and a belief in myself, I put my love for luxury and art into my venture, Little Tags and it’s a name that’s known by parents across the globe for its uniqueness and refined collection for kids today.”

Nevertheless, initially, the ride was riddled with many bumps. She faced several challenges which she surmounted ensuring Little Tags’ success rate reached greater heights. She says that one of the biggest challenges faced was during the commencement of Little Tags and Little Tags Luxury, as there had been a talk among the people that luxury kids wear won’t entice parents to invest in high-end kids’ fashion. “Though, I believe that parents are finding it hard to find premium clothing collections or designer kids wear in India, just like I found it difficult after my child’s birth.

As a surprise, there had been an enormous number of people desiring a reliable store to find a premium line of clothing exclusively for kids. “Today, we are catering to the needs of thousands of customers every day who have been exclusively looking for designer clothes and apparel from international brands.”

With every new addition in the range from an elite brand to a designer label, we are overcoming every challenge that we have been facing during the creation of the website.” It was basically the firm and strong conviction to create an online store with a specific category of kid’s wear that helped to overcome every challenge.

“We are ahead of time with our ‘Customer Care Services’ and belief in keeping our customers complacent.”

“We made couture for kids possible in India. We have licensed some famous characters like Dora, Garfield, and SpongeBob SquarePants which have a great affinity and are quite popular among children.”

According to her, they have achieved skyrocketing appreciation in the kid’s apparel market which has set a benchmark for their competitors. Today, Little Tags is a go-to name for parents across the world whether they want to shop for casual wear, party wear, vacation supplies, accessories for kids’ everyday essentials, it’s all that you get, and much more.
