LOVI Boutique reflects their personal values by blending timeless designs with the practicality required for everyday wear, ensuring that each piece is both meaningful and environmentally conscious.
From Personal Challenge to Passion
The inception of LOVI Boutique was deeply rooted in a personal experience. After Mr Vijay had his firstborn he and his wife, as parents they faced the challenge of finding suitable clothing for her baby’s sensitive skin. Traditional Indian garments, with their embellishments and synthetic materials, often caused discomfort. This necessity led the founders to explore alternatives, ultimately discovering the benefits of organic cotton. Unlike the traditional options available, organic cotton is soft, breathable, and gentle on sensitive skin.
Their research revealed a gap in the Singapore market for ethnic wear made from organic cotton. Motivated by this finding, the founders decided to bridge this gap. Starting with an online store in 2020, LOVI Boutique began by importing fabric from India, a country renowned for its high-quality cotton and traditional hand block and screen printing techniques. Initially focused on reselling, LOVI Boutique has now evolved, designing its own collections under the brand name. Each piece is thoughtfully crafted, with selected prints chosen to ensure the utmost comfort for kids.
The boutique takes pride in the careful attention to detail that goes into creating clothing that is not only stylish but also designed with children’s needs in mind. Their initial focus was onchildrenclothing, but as they received feedback from customers, they expanded their offerings to include a range of seasonal matching outfits for festive seasons and modern designs also called as indo-western style. The transition from an online presence to a physical retail store owned by Mr Vijayat North Point marked a significant milestone, reflecting their growth and success.
