Customers seek instant gratification for their need for convenience and customisation. Serene believes every woman is entitled to own footwear that is sculpted and created solely for her. Serene says, “Cara Pyramids’ Bespoke service helps women wear what they want, rather than having to choose from pre-made options. This gives them the freedom to choose the material, style, cut, size and shape. It is also a life-saver for women with slightly unconventional foot size. To ensure it’s the right fit, we make and remake it, till it’s tailored to perfection.”

A bespoke shoe service with unmatched sophistication and style is a rarity and hence it isn’t surprising that the Indian fashion industry has been all praises for the brand. Fashion-forward designer, Nachiket Barwe connected with Serene to design the footwear for his Wills India Fashion Week show. After receiving an awe-inspiring response, her shoes for Lords were used on the runaway for the fashion shows of Surily Goel and other designers in Blenders Pride Fashion Tour. She designed for Nachiket Barwe once again––leading to a few enthralled students of London School of Fashion requesting for her inimitable shoe designs.

A luxury house with a heart, Serene doesn’t believe in using real leather for her designs, “I am very sensitive towards the use of leather. I believe in today’s day and age, technology has given synthetic materials the same kind of durability as seen in leather.”
