A Theatre of Textiles
In the quiet folds of Bhuj, far from the fashion capitals of the world, a distinctive kind of couture is being dreamt into existence, one where every garment tells a story, and every stitch holds the essence of heritage. This is Madame Hall.
Founded by Australian designer Lisa Hall, Madame Hall is an intimate atelier of expression. A journey that began in the evocative world of theatre and costume design now finds its home in the rich craft traditions of Gujarat’s Kutch region. Lisa’s early immersion in storytelling through costume instilled in her a flair for drama, detail, and design that is anything but ordinary.
It was a chance viewing of travel photographs that first drew her to India. A serendipitous encounter, her designs unexpectedly landing in a Cate Blanchett editorial cemented her path. That moment ignited a passion that led her, in 2012, to settle in Bhuj, a region famed for its intricate handwork and artisan legacy.
A Living Collaboration
At the heart of Madame Hall lies a commitment to craftsmanship, individuality, and respect for tradition. Each piece is designed by instinct, by layering ideas, vintage fabrics, tribal embroideries, and textures that speak across cultures and time. Theatrical, one-of-a-kind, and emotionally resonant, every garment is a labour of love and collaboration.
Lisa works closely with Dipu, her trusted co-director, and a dedicated team of bespoke tailors—Sandeep, Raju, Magan and Rahul who share her uncompromising standards. Together, they blend centuries-old skills with modern silhouettes, giving rise to garments that are extraordinary.
Every Madame Hall piece is constructed from handmade, often rare fabrics embroideries by the women of the Kutch Node community, heirloom textiles, and antique finds—making each creation an artwork in itself. No two pieces are ever the same.
If you love India, love handmade, and
love the idea of wearing a story-
welcome to Madame Hall.
Where theatre meets textile.
Where tradition is reimagined.
Where every piece is art to wear.
A Quiet Luxury
Madame Hall is not for everyone. It is for the discerning few who see fashion as personal poetry. Who crave individuality. Who chooses slow beauty over fast fashion. This is quiet luxury—crafted in a remote atelier, known by word of mouth, discovered like a secret. They hold the weight of craftsmanship and the lightness of a designer’s free-spirited vision.
Global Soul,
Artisanal Heart
From Bhuj to boutiques to the wardrobes of global aesthetes, Madame Hall has become a hidden gem for those who seek fashion with soul. Through her full-time atelier, Lisa continues to design obsessively—offering made-to-order garments that ensure perfect fit, personal connection, and prompt delivery through
trusted global shipping.
