Tanvi Sethi established Torqadorn in 2018, driven by a desire to find a creative outlet beyond her extensive experience in the fashion industry. With a vision to empower women to embrace their individuality with confidence, she sought to create a brand that resonates with authenticity and boldness. The brand truly began to flourish in 2020 when her sister Vithika Sethi joined as co-founder, bringing her own expertise and passion for fashion to the table. Together, the sister duo combined their creative energies to design collections that seamlessly blend contemporary style with timeless elegance.
Since then, Torqadorn has evolved into a dynamic community, transcending the typical clothing line. Every piece is carefully designed to ensure it not only looks stunning but also instils a sense of empowerment in the wearer. It’s a space for bold women who take pride in their individuality and express themselves through unique fashion choices.
The core philosophy of the brand is in the name itself – merging the concepts of ‘torq’ (power) and ‘adorn’ (to dress), Torqadorn signifies “power dressing” but goes beyond the traditional realm of it, aiming to include silhouettes which make you feel empowered to take on the world. This fusion embodies the belief in fashion as a powerful vehicle for self-expression and confidence. “We wanted a name that truly encapsulated our vision of the transformative impact of clothing.”
Torqadorn believes in creating wardrobe heroes—timeless pieces that people will reach for again and again. Each item is designed with versatility in mind, making it easy to mix and match with staples from one’s closet, allowing for unique and personal styling options. “We are confidently on our own unique path. For us, it’s always been about quality over quantity,” said the owners proudly.
From limited financial resources to fierce competition, Torqadorn has faced countless challenges in the fashion industry. Despite these hurdles, the brand has remained resilient, focusing on innovative designs and sustainable practices.
As Torqadorn sets its sights on these ambitious goals, the future looks bright. “We’re planning to expand our offerings to include accessories, starting with a collection of bags next year. This move is all about giving our customers a complete Torqadorn look. We want to make it easier for everyone who wears our brand to feel fully coordinated and stylish from head to toe,” say the owners. “On top of that, we’re aiming to reach more people than ever before by expanding into the international market. With the brand being loved by customers worldwide, we’re also planning to aggressively expand internationally next year.” This strategic growth reflects Torqadorn’s commitment to innovation and creativity, promising to elevate its presence in the fashion world while maintaining both quality and style.
