EDITOR’S LETTER It’s been 3 years since the spark of Styletag first took hold of us and we set out to make the idea of a curated lifestyle website an experience to behold, and boy… has this been some journey! What started as a team of 5 people has now expanded to include over 70 creative, upbeat individuals constantly improvising to better the customer experience and making Styletag synonymous with the online designer experience in India.

Launch Styletag.com was formally launched on June 1st, 2013, at Embassy Grove in Bengaluru. As India’s first curated designer-wear website, Styletag has carved a niche for itself by providing designers across the country a platform to reach out to audience all over India. The big attraction of the launch event was a fashion show by Manish Malhotra titled 100 Years of Indian Cinema. Malhotra, in his quintessential style, brought to the stage a dose of oomph and glamour. The creations were a tribute to the ever-dramatic and enigmatic Bollywood and ranged from the era of the silent talkies, panning an entire gamut of 70 years and ending with his very-popular sequinned chiffon sarees donned by divas such as Kareena Kapoor, Priyanka Chopra, etc. The party was hosted by Yashodhara & Sanjay Shroff, along with Lina and Jeetu Virwani.

This is what our customers (dressed in their Styletag buys, by the way!) have to say about us‌
Suhani Pittie India’s leading jewellery designer
“I love that Styletag is easy to navigate and clutter-free. I like the range of designs available – there are many options to choose from and the sales are constantly updated. Sometimes, the theme is Bohemian. At other times, it is very kitschy, like the recent neon burst. So, the collection is quite right on the trend. I am a very forgetful person but Styletag.com is so active on social channels that it’s never out of sight and hence, never out of my mind.”
