Our Manifesto

Born of heritage.
Carried with pride.

We come from a country that shaped the world’s sense of beauty. Where every attire once told stories of queens and commoners, of palaces and prayer halls, of ancestry and everyday grace - turning garments into frescoes, attire into living museums! 

Unapologetic, rich, brimming with meaning and beauty in equal parts.

But somewhere along the way (thanks to colonialism first or our inability to undo it next) we stopped living our heritage and flaunting who we are. Heritage became occasional, indulgent, almost apologetic! What once lived boldly on the streets now survives in weddings, galleries & stored-away shelves!

Miri exists to change this. One refreshingly artistic bag at a time. 

Because heritage belongs not in museums, but in motion! 

We’re not here to mimic sterile global aesthetics or logo-only luxury. We are not building another safe, minimalist brand that erases all signs of where it came from. Our inspirations don’t come from Paris runways or Milanese minimalism. They come from the courtyards of our great grandmothers, from our ghats and gullies, the forts and fields — from memory itself, and from the proud maximalism the world has always drawn inspiration from.

We are rooted in India. In its craft, its creativity, its women, and its living poetry. We reinterpret our culture & heritage into contemporary art that you can carry. Every Miri bag is a living archive - a timely reminder to the world that ornamentation was India’s own invention. 

We craft pieces for the modern aesthete — a woman who chooses intentionally, and wears her Indianness like second skin. She doesn’t need her bag to signal her status; her elegance is the only insignia she needs. Her grace and poise are her quiet power.

This is our rebellion - to make art wearable, accessories expressive and heritage future-facing.

This is Miri -  A celebration of beauty rooted in Indian heritage.
