About Us

Handmade garments from Jaipur, inspiring a more vibrant way of being in the world.

Our Story

Having graduated from Glasgow School of Art, Molly Russell was inspired to create a brand that championed color and creativity when a chance encounter in Jaipur, led her to create Pink City Prints.

Pink City Prints was founded to preserve the traditional crafts of India's Pink City and our collections speak to a more thoughtful, authentic way of life.

Made By Hand

Each one of our pieces has been worked on by hand, using techniques that have been perfected and passed down for generations.

Now, Pink City Prints supports hundreds of artisans to safeguard the age old arts of Hand Embroidery, Block Printing and Hand Looming.

Our Operations

Although our main hub is in Jaipur, we outsource our crafts to specialist artisans in regions across Northern India. All of our Hand Looming is done in Kalkata, where it is a traditional local craft.

Over the years we've been able to work with craft communities across the globe, including sustainable cashmere suppliers and high quality, European sandal makers.

Meet the Makers

Molly Russell founded Pink City Prints when living in Jaipur, inspired by the people who bring the city to life with their approach to craft, color and community. With our rich craft community representing centuries of knowledge and skill, it is the people who make Pink City Prints.

Sanjay Bairwa

Sustainability

Our artisans only ever make small batches of our handcrafted garments, using locally sourced materials, and avoiding any surplus. All of our old stock and samples are sold to raise money for various causes, or donated directly to charity. Any fabric offcuts we do have are used to make our packaging and our salvaged accessories. Nothing will ever go to landfill.

We are committed to making durable, timeless pieces that you will wear for years to come.

We offset all shipping carbon emissions for all our customers, wherever they are in the world.

naturally-sourced fabrics

We choose our fabrics for their high quality and their low impact on the environment.

Our organic cotton is naturally-sourced, pesticide free and uses much less water than regular cotton.
