Shopping here is such a delight!!! I spoke with Vijay on the phone, and met him and another employee in person today. I had the most fun shopping for multiple Lehengas. The outfits are beautiful but the best part is all the smiles that came along with my shopping experience. Couldn't recommend India Art & Craft more!

I had a great experience trying on and buying lehenga for an upcoming wedding. We came as a pretty large group and the owners helped us with sizing, styling, and picking out colors that would compliment us. They were incredibly friendly and helpful and the prices were very fair.

I absolutely adore this place! It's family-run, and all the owners are so incredibly nice. I visited when the elderly gentleman was working, and he was so sweet and enthusiastic about helping me find clothing that I would like. He was also surprisingly good at guessing what size I needed. They have a little fitting room with a locking door so you can try on stuff before buying. They also sell little trinkets and things, as well as clothing. Honestly, shopping there felt somewhere between having a personalized stylist and visiting my grandfather; it was lovely.

I went to the store today to pick out an outfit for an Indian wedding I am attending next month. The owner was kind, welcoming and helpful. He showed me a variety of options, he took the time to pick up the sizes the fit me best. I would highly recommend this store.

Great experience and service. I went with my husband, we have our first Indian weeding in India (first time traveling there too) and the gentleman at the store not only gave us great advice on the outfits but also our trip in general. Thank you for your time today!

I went to India Art & Craft 3 weeks ago to prepare for an upcoming Indian wedding. My service was exceptional! VJ was extremely helpful with picking the pieces, discussing the culture and significance, and there were so many options! My friend that accompanied me was so impressed that she also purchased items and I even came back to get something for my mom! I completely recommend this shop.

Great little shop! I walked in and was immediately greeted by two gentlemen working at the shop. They asked what I was looking for and jumped right into making suggestions, immediately identified my correct size, and I was in and out in 30 minutes with a beautiful outfit for an upcoming wedding. They gave me outfit suggestions, accessory advice, helped me pin the top so it fit better, and even gave me a set of complementary bindis. I highly recommend this store, especially if you have an Indian wedding to attend, or are just looking for a fun different outfit for a fancy occasion. Will definitely be back!

So we found this place via google after days of looking online. My bf and I were heading to an Indian wedding and didn't know the first thing about what to wear. The owner was unbelievably kind and helpful! He helped us pick out matching outfits and we looked stunning! He even threw in some bindis for free with my dress! I couldnt say enough good things about this shop! Thank you sir for helping us out!

We were invited to our first Bengali wedding and needed to find attire. I am a last minute person, so I was trying to find something 2 weeks before the wedding. I came here and was greeted into the store by Vijay. We let him know we were looking for something to wear to a wedding and showed him a reference picture. He showed us what he had in store and let us try it on. I fell in love with this green and my girlfriend loved her royal blue. They were beautiful and reasonable price when you think of how everything is hand stitched. PLUS my package came with a skirt, pants, scarf, and the overall dress. He showed us jewelry. He made sure to let us know to not feel any pressure to buy anything, he was simply showing us what he had in store. Thank you Vijay for all your help! We came here at like 2pm on a Saturday and was out by 2:30pm.

I really enjoyed browsing the beautiful selection of saris and kurtas they had! The owner was very friendly and we had a great chat while I looked around. Will definitely stop by again when I'm in DC!

We were in DC for an Indian wedding and had no idea what to wear. We needed something day of and we came here because it was so close and the great reviews. He helped me and my partner get fitted for outfits in less than 15 minutes! We love our outfits and they will be perfect for the event. I can’t believe he helped us so quick and we got everything done day of. Definitely recommend coming here! He was so knowledgeable and helpful!

I was searching for the perfect Pakistani party wear shalwar kameez and stumbled upon India Art & Craft. Their selection is outstanding and the staff was incredibly helpful in finding the perfect outfit for me. I felt so confident and beautiful wearing it to the event!

I had the pleasure of visiting the best Sari shop in Washington DC, which is India Art & Craft. The variety of colors, fabrics, and designs was breathtaking. I left with a stunning sari that I received so many compliments on. I will definitely be returning to this shop for all my future sari needs.

This store was a very special find on our 25th wedding anniversary. We spent the day in DC and on the way to the Metro saw some of the most beautiful dresses on display outside. We had to go in. The owner was fantastic. He was so helpful, kind, nice, and had such a beautiful soul. The selection was unbelievable. The place was packed full of beautiful clothing and such cute shoes/slippers. No two items were the same!!! There had to be over a thousand items in the store!!! All different!!!You will find so many beautiful skirts, dresses, pants, scarves - you name it. I am a pasty white old lady and I am telling you, if I can find awesome amazing pieces that look good on me here, any skin tone can and will look stunning after a trip here. The prices were unbelievable. If we hadn’t spent the last 6+ hours on our feet (recall that I’m old) and needed to catch a train for the 1.5 hour trip home, I would have a new wardrobe.Once I got my purchases home I discovered the skirt I bought was 100% silk - and was a multi-function piece. There are so many ways to wear this one piece. Dress, shirts, and skit - and reversible!! You could buy your entire beach getaway wardrobe here and pack it all in your carryon!!The jewelry case just about sent me over the edge. Turquoise, lapis, and old red coral!!!! Handmade! And so much more.I so need to go back there again. I need to check out the rugs. These aren’t your typical rugs. These are works of art.Please be sure to stop in and take a look. You will be very happy you did.Note to the owner: you are an amazing man. Thank you for sharing your stories with us. Thank you again.
