Chitwan Mohan and Cuddles_by_ChitwanMohan
From the time she completed her fashion course at Parsons, Chitwan knew that designer clothing was the line she wanted to get into. She started with womenswear in 2011 and then ventured into menswear in 2016.
Whenever Chitwan visited the fabric markets for men’s fabrics, she would find herself staring at the cute kids’ fabrics and would wish that she could do something in that line. She would pick up fabrics for her son’s nightwear and shirts and they turned out really well; every time he wore them, her family would encourage her to consider venturing into this as a side business and gauge the response.
Chitwan began small in 2020 and then there was no looking back. This isn’t a side business anymore. Chitwan is extremely passionate about it and doing kids' wear in particular makes her extremely happy. Moreover, she has discovered a staunch support system in the form of her mommy clients. It helps that Chitwan considers entrepreneurship to be in her blood. Work is her passion and it drives her out of bed every single morning.
Chitwan considers herself fortunate that she didn't face any big challenges along her entrepreneurial journey. Her family has been in the clothing business since 1881 so she received a lot of support from them. Also, her son didn’t mind Chitwan leaving him and going to work for a few hours every day.
Looking back, the toughest task was establishing trust and sustaining relationships with her fabric vendors alongside setting up a unit where her sampling and production could take place. The arena of kids' clothing was completely new for her when she started so it took her time to understand what fabrics clients prefer etc.
Along with her passion for kids' wear, Chitwan loves cooking and reading to her son.
