Our Legacy

RESA by Ushnakmals is more than a brand — it is a living legacy, woven through eight generations of passion, craftsmanship, and heritage.

Our story began in the late 1800s, in Lahore, Punjab, when Ushnakmal Moolchand laid the foundation of a humble handloom house that would go on to define the art of fine silk weaving.

What started as a devotion to craft and purity of silk soon became a symbol of India’s most exquisite textile traditions — adored by royalty, brides, and connoisseurs of art across generations.

The Craft

Every weave, every motif, and every thread carries the story of generations who lived by the loom. Each creation is handcrafted by skilled artisans in Varanasi, preserving techniques passed down from whisper to whisper, loom to loom.

RESA is an ode to the woman who embraces her roots yet charts her own path. She treasures heritage but expresses it with a modern spirit — fluid, confident, and effortlessly graceful.

RESA Today

From unstitched lehengas to Banarasi suit sets, handwoven sarees, and signature fabrics by the thaan, every piece reflects a dialogue between the past and the present — where traditional patterns meet modern silhouettes, and every thread tells a story of patience, precision, and purpose.

At RESA by Ushnakmals, we believe luxury is not about excess — it is about essence. It lies in the touch of hand-spun silk, the gleam of real zari, and the quiet pride of knowing your garment carries a century of artistry within its weave.
