Our Story
Label Prem Anand is more than just a fashion label; it's a heartfelt journey of self-discovery, creativity, and an enduring love for Indian heritage. Founded by Shivani Karingula, a Telugu American who moved to Hyderabad to reconnect with her roots and embrace a creative life, the brand represents a harmonious blend of tradition and modernity—much like Shivani’s own story.
Born in Hyderabad and raised in New Jersey, Shivani grew up balancing two vibrant cultures. Her love for Indian fashion began early; by age 13, she was sketching designs, sourcing fabrics, and collaborating with tailors to bring her visions to life. While her career path initially took her into healthcare consulting, her passion for design and artistry never faded. Ultimately, Shivani made the bold decision to leave the corporate world behind and return to Hyderabad, where Label Prem Anand was born as a tribute to her Indian-American identity.
The name Prem Anand is a deeply personal tribute to Shivani’s paternal and maternal grandfathers, who were her biggest inspirations. Prem means love, and Anand means happiness—two emotions that are at the heart of everything the brand creates.
At Label Prem Anand, we celebrate the timeless beauty of Indian craftsmanship through contemporary designs. From bespoke bridal lehengas to chic partywear, each piece is thoughtfully crafted to blend traditional artistry with modern silhouettes. With intricate beadwork, handwoven fabrics, and attention to detail, our designs are more than just clothes—they are experiences that inspire confidence, joy, and empowerment.
Our logo, featuring the lotus and unalome, reflects our philosophy. The lotus symbolizes beauty rising from challenges, while the unalome represents the journey to enlightenment—a path of growth and transformation. Together, these symbols capture the essence of Shivani’s journey and the brand’s vision: honoring heritage while embracing innovation.
Every Label Prem Anand creation is made with intention, designed to evoke love, happiness, and a sense of individuality. We’re honored to share our story and creations with you, and we hope to inspire you to live boldly, celebrate your roots, and embrace the beauty of endless possibilities.
Thank you for being part of our journey. Welcome to Label Prem Anand!
