Pabiben Founder

Pabiben is a brand that has been gaining popularity in recent years, especially among those who appreciate traditional and sustainable fashion. Founded by Pabiben Rabari and Nilesh, the brand is known for its unique and vibrant designs in apparel, bags, cushion covers, passport covers, and other products. 

In this article, we will take a closer look at Pabiben, its founders, and their journey of creativity and entrepreneurship.

The Beginning of Pabiben

Pabiben Rabari, the founder of Pabiben, was born and brought up in a small village in Kutch, Gujarat. She grew up watching her mother and other women in the village create beautiful embroidery and mirror work on their clothes and household items. This sparked her interest in the craft, and she began learning embroidery at a young age.

In 1992, Pabiben moved to Ahmedabad to work as a domestic help. However, she continued to practice embroidery in her free time and started selling her products to her employers and their friends. 

Soon, her work gained recognition, and she started receiving orders from various parts of the country.

In 2003, Pabiben decided to turn her passion into a business and started her own brand, Pabiben. She teamed up with Nilesh, a marketing professional, who helped her with branding, marketing, and sales.

Pabiben's Philosophy

Pabiben's philosophy is rooted in sustainability, traditional craft, and empowering women artisans. Pabiben and Nilesh believe that fashion should not only be aesthetically pleasing but also socially and environmentally responsible.

The brand uses organic and natural materials like cotton, silk, and wool, and works with women artisans from rural areas who specialize in embroidery, mirror work, and other traditional crafts. By collaborating with these artisans, Pabiben aims to provide them with a source of income and to preserve traditional crafts that are at risk of disappearing.

Pabiben's Products

Pabiben offers a wide range of products, including apparel, bags, cushion covers, passport covers, and other accessories. The products are known for their vibrant colors, intricate embroidery, and mirrorwork.

The apparel collection includes dresses, skirts, tops, and jackets, all made with natural fabrics and adorned with traditional embroidery and mirror work. The bags collection includes tote bags, clutches, and backpacks, all made with organic cotton and featuring traditional embroidery.

The cushion covers and passport covers are also made with organic cotton and feature colorful embroidery and mirror work. Pabiben also offers accessories like keychains and earrings that are handmade by women artisans.

Recognition and Awards

Pabiben has received recognition and awards for its unique designs and sustainable practices. In 2017, Pabiben was one of the winners of the Fashion for Good-Plug and Play Accelerator Program, a global initiative that supports sustainable fashion start-ups.

In 2018, Pabiben was selected as one of the finalists of the Circular Design Challenge, a competition organized by the United Nations Development Program (UNDP) to promote sustainable fashion.

Impact on Women Artisans

Pabiben's collaboration with women artisans from rural areas has had a significant impact on their lives. By providing them with a source of income, Pabiben has helped these women become financially independent and support their families.

Moreover, Pabiben's collaboration with these artisans has also helped preserve traditional crafts that are at risk of disappearing. By incorporating traditional embroidery and mirror work into their products, Pabiben is not only promoting sustainable fashion but also supporting cultural heritage.

Pabiben's products have also caught the attention of celebrities and influencers. Bollywood actresses like Sonam Kapoor, Swara Bhasker, and Kalki Koechlin have been spotted wearing Pabiben's designs, and the brand has also collaborated with various fashion bloggers and influencers.

The success of Pabiben has not only inspired other entrepreneurs to pursue sustainable fashion but has also raised awareness about the importance of traditional crafts and sustainable practices. 

Pabiben's philosophy and practices have become a model for other brands to follow, and its success has demonstrated that sustainability and social responsibility can be profitable.

Furthermore, Pabiben's collaboration with women artisans has not only had a positive impact on their lives but has also empowered them to take pride in their craft and cultural heritage. 

By providing these women with a platform to showcase their skills and creativity, Pabiben has helped to preserve and promote traditional crafts that have been passed down through generations.

Future Plans

Pabiben's founders Shark Tank have big plans for the future. They aim to expand their brand globally and increase their impact on women artisans. Pabiben plans to collaborate with more women artisans from different parts of the country and to introduce new product lines.

They also aim to increase awareness about sustainable fashion and traditional crafts by participating in more events and exhibitions. Pabiben has already participated in various events, including Lakme Fashion Week and the Sustainable Fashion Day at the India Fashion Week.

Moreover, Pabiben plans to invest in technology to improve its production process and reduce waste. They aim to introduce eco-friendly packaging and use renewable energy sources to power their production facilities.

Pabiben's success has also attracted attention from the media and the fashion industry. The brand has been featured in various publications, including Vogue India, Elle India, and Harper's Bazaar India, and has been recognized as one of the leading sustainable fashion brands in the country.

Conclusion

Pabiben's journey of creativity and entrepreneurship has been truly inspiring. Its founders, Pabiben Rabari and Nilesh, have demonstrated that sustainable fashion can be both socially responsible and profitable. 

By collaborating with women artisans from rural areas and promoting traditional crafts, Pabiben has not only created a successful brand but has also made a significant impact on the lives of these women and on the fashion industry as a whole. 

As Pabiben continues to grow and expand globally, it has the potential to become a leading sustainable fashion brand and to create a more sustainable and equitable future for the fashion industry.

Ojas Rajani is a well known make up stylist and her clientele includes the likes of Aishwarya Rai, Sonam Kapoor et al. She visited Ahmedabad a few weeks back to do a makeup workshop for INGLOT Cosmetics. A regular visitor at the INGLOT outlet (there’s no other major makeup brand in Ahmedabad), during my last visit I was invited to attend the workshop by the illustrious Ms. Rajani.

Now I have attended enough make up trainings in the last few years to understand and in turn use the oft repeated basic skin prepping and priming etc but a quick Google search told me she specialized in dramatic eye make up and that got me interested. For all those who know me well, know I am not much of a makeup person. On an average day, you would mostly find me wearing my trusted tinted sun screen, little eye liner/kajal and a dab of lip balm but I do like to dress up at times and definitely love writing about my make up experiments as much as anything else.

She worked on 3 looks for us:

A smokey eyes evening look, peaches and cream day look and a traditional bridal/wedding look.

My favorite out of these was the peaches and cream, day look. It was so effortless and low maintenance. The only requirement-you must have a gorgeous skin since she hardly used any preppers on the skin! The main products she used to get the desired look:

Illuminating cheek serum- this one got me really interested. It’s perfect for a dewy look. I have not tried it personally so will not recommend it yet.

Peach and pink lip stain with plumper- I am not a big fan of lip stains but seeing how she used it both on the lips and cheeks, it is on my shopping list now.

The second look was the Smokey eye look. I’ve tried it here before.

I normally use a combination of black and grey shadows, kajal and eye-liner to get the desired smokey eye look.

Ojas used a mix of black and brown shadows which gave a totally different effect and a lovely one at that! She also suggested contouring the top arch of the eye socket with peach shadow before working on the smokey look to give a more defined look. I have to agree completely!

The third look was the wedding/bridal look.

She’s used highlighter below the eye brows and the cheeks to grab light on those points. She’s also used Extra Shimmer Powder by INGLOT to dust the face in the end for the extra glowy look.

I will do my own version of these 3 looks later, but here, let me just sum up some important tips by her that are worth keeping in mind.

She suggests using an angled brush instead of using fingers or a sponge to apply foundation. I swear by my foundation sponge but this tip seems worth trying.

No make up is complete without mascara! I have to agree with her on this.

If you have deep set eyes do not close the liner at the tear ducts. This will make your eyes appear bigger.

While sticking false eye lashes always start with the inner corner of the eye lid and slowly move outward by stretching the lid.

Mix and match two or more lipstick colors to get your own unique shades.

Use translucent powder instead of compact on your foundation/base.

Gel liners are better than pencil or liquid ones. They stay longer and are more versatile.

Blend-blend-blend. Use a blending brush and keep blending after each step-primer, foundation, loose powder, bronzer, blush, translucent powder.

She was extremely approachable and patient with the crowd. However, there were certain things I didn’t quite agree with.

She talks about using lip colors that go with ones complexion-dark skinned girls should try lighter shades and vice versa. I have always believed in experimenting rather than following the so-called “rules”. After all, dusky is the new fair so flaunt it!

She mostly uses cream based blushes and eye shadows which considering the weather may not be the best idea.

She talked about the magical eye brow pencil by INGLOT and I bought it immediately. Sadly, there are no short cuts when it comes to the perfect eye brow. Comb-fill-press-set is the mantra. The brow pencil is wax based and leaves your brow hair clumpy. I will not recommend it.

All in all, I had a fun evening. Do let me know if you have any specific questions.

Stay Gorgeous xx

Pink Patchwork

Pink Patchwork Look 2017

On this winter morning in the first week of 2017, I wanted to stop and reflect on the past year and how my style has evolved. Sitting back in a café with an outfit I love, watching the exposed brick walls and sipping on my heart smiley coffee, I reflected on my love for this career. Just like anyone else, I’ve had great highs and some pretty low lows. However, being there I couldn’t be more…

What are the popular career options in India?

Ready to start working but not sure about your career options? Let us help you with some popular career options in India. Read on.

Making the right career choice is important, especially if you want to make your own mark as a professional in your career trajectory. Otherwise, it may become a painstakingly long exercise trying out different vocations to finally find your true calling. While some people choose one line of work and stick to it throughout their career, there are many who dabble with different career options before settling down with a particular career choice. You can find success in either path, as long as you keep learning and remain dedicated along the way.

Gone are the days when our parents or grandparents were stuck with a handful of career choices. The world has changed and has opened up a huge number of career options for this generation of job seekers. With all the options available for a fresher today, the pressure of choosing a career may become overwhelming and confusing.  

To help you make an informed decision and make the process of finding the right career option easier, here is a list of the most popular career options in India. This list will help you:

Understand the career options that are best suited for you

Decide your professional choices based on your interest, personality and skills

Narrow down your career options  in case you want to try out different lines of vocations

Career options to set you towards the right professional direction

1. Technology

Technology is by far the most popular career option of the 21st century. It drives the economy and advancement in almost all the nations of the world. Needless to say, there is a huge demand for technology experts in the job market. Technology firms are always on the lookout to hire Software Engineers, Developers, Hardware Engineers, Tech Architects, Programmers, Coders, Quality Analyst (QA), Design Engineers, Tech Managers, Front End Developers, Back End Developers, Testers, Products Specialists…the list goes on. So, if you love innovation & technology and are curious about how it all works, then this field is for you.

2. Marketing

Marketing is a highly attractive career option for people who are creative and can find a selling opportunity in everything under the sun, right from a pin to a plane. In today’s competitive business space, every product or service requires sales and marketing, which makes this an attractive career choice for management graduates. People with excellent communication, persuasiveness and presentation skills can excel in this field. You can find jobs such as Sales Executive, Sales Manager, Marketing Manager, Customer Representative, Relationship manager, Digital Marketing Executive, SEO, Graphic Designer, Telecaller etc.

3. Finance & Banking

This career choice is best for students who are good with numbers, data crunching and analysis. Finance graduates are highly coveted professionals as they help organizations in maintaining accounts, estimating costs, making budgets, profit maximization and preparing financial reports. Popular career options related to finance and banking segments are Accounts Executive, Chartered Accountant, Company Secretary, Financial Planner, Auditor, Banker, Wealth Consultant and so on.

4. Human Resources

All businesses need one important thing to keep running: People! The department that takes care of the life cycle of an employee in the organization, right from recruitment to resignation, is the Human Resource department. So, it’s evident that professionals in this field are an integral part of any company, irrespective of its line of business and size. An HR is responsible for hiring people, managing them during their association with the company, retaining them to keep attrition levels low, and carrying out the exit formalities in case of a resignation or retirement. If you are a people’s person, you can give this career option a thought. The HR field offers job titles such as HR Manager, Recruiter, Payroll Executive, Generalist HR, Labour Relations Officer, HR Compliance Executive and more.

5. Law

Every business organization, small, big, or medium, has to conduct its business within the legal framework of the country. Therefore, this career option is an inseparable part of any company. Recently, the field of law and legal practitioners have gained a lot of popularity due to the increasing complexity of business regulations, stringent policies and tax rules in almost every work sector. This has generated a huge number of employment opportunities for law graduates who can specialize in corporate law, international law & policies, tax law, labour law and a lot of other laws and policies.

6. Unconventional career options

Apart from these popular career options, there are some other options too which have garnered interest in recent years and are attracting a massive number of talented and qualified individuals. These career choices include Data Analyst, Statistician, Fashion Designer, Illustrator/ Graphic Designer, Content Writer, Linguistic Expert, Counsellor, Psychologist, Tutor, Blogger, Entrepreneur, Social Worker, Chef and many such offbeat career paths.

Hopefully this list of professional choices will help you to narrow down your choices for a career that you will find fulfilling in the long run.
