Residing in the pink city of India, Jaipur, is this beautiful multi-brand concept store called Parampara that has been shaping a new design heritage with clothing and accessories curated by its owners. The store’s private label – DeCastro Moda is what we want to highlight.
Taking cues from its origin which is Colombian and fusing it with Indian handloom and our heartland’s delicate embroidery, DeCastro Moda has been successfully creating plush footwear that is full of life and color. While DeCastro is a full-fledged label with more offerings, it’s their fabulous mules and slippers that we can’t take our eyes off currently!
