Founder's Note

Dear Customers,

It brings me great pleasure to share the journey of Rhapso with you, a brand born out of a passion for crafting exceptional menswear and a dedication to quality and innovation.

Hailing from the cultural hub of Mysore and armed with a B.Com Degree, my journey in the world of fashion began with humble roots. Inspired by the artistry of friends and family, I embarked on a journey to learn and master the craft of tailoring. Starting with pants and gradually expanding to shirts and suits, each stitch was infused with a commitment to excellence and a determination to create garments that stood apart from the rest.

At Rhapso, our ethos is rooted in using only top-quality raw materials and an unwavering focus on the perfect fit. Drawing inspiration from traditional techniques and modern designs, we strive to think out of the box, creating outfits that are timeless and distinctive. Each garment is a testament to our dedication to craftsmanship and innovation, from intricately embroidered kurtas to impeccably tailored suits.

What sets Rhapso apart is our relentless pursuit of uniqueness. Specialising in creating designs that break away from the conventional, we pride ourselves on offering our patrons something truly special – garments that are not only impeccably crafted but also exude individuality and charm.

As we continue on this journey, I am grateful for your support and patronage. It is your trust in our vision that drives us to innovate, create, and push the boundaries of menswear. Thank you for joining us on this adventure, and I look forward to sharing many more milestones with you in the years to come.

With warm regards,

Satish Kumar

Managing Director

Meet Ashish Tikare, the dynamic Managing Director of Rhapso, whose journey from Chennai, his mother's hometown, to the forefront of the men’s fashion industry is nothing short of inspiring.

Armed with a Degree in Information Science, Ashish initially embarked on a journey that led him to Accenture, where he honed his skills for 2.5 years. However, fuelled by an entrepreneurial spirit and a desire to make a mark in the fashion world, Ashish took a leap of faith. He decided to pursue his passion with his startup, Studio Bespoke. (Known today as Rhapso, Label by Satish)

Teaming up with his father and founder of Rhapso, Mr. Satish Kumar, Ashish brought a fresh perspective to the table, revolutionising the way Rhapso operated. With a keen eye for innovation, he introduced operational organisation and computerised management systems, leveraging digital technology to scale the business to new heights.

As Rhapso continued to grow, Ashish's role evolved, and he began to immerse himself in fashion consulting and design. Drawing upon his background in information science, he applied his analytical mindset to the creative realm, bringing a unique blend of technology and artistry to the forefront of Rhapso's operations.

Today, as the Managing Director of Rhapso, Ashish is at the helm of a thriving enterprise, leading the charge in shaping the future of menswear. His vision, coupled with his unwavering dedication to quality and innovation, continues to drive Rhapso towards new horizons, cementing its position as a leader in the fashion industry.

 Timeline for Rhapso

Satish Tailors was established in a small space on RT street, Chickpet. Satish Kumar worked tirelessly, initially with just one machine and one maker. Over time, he expanded the operation, acquiring more machines and eventually occupying the entire building by 1998.

Satish Tailors became one of the pioneering brands to adopt digital measurement management technology, developing its own app. With a workforce of at least 20 people, the business experienced rapid growth, attracting clients not only locally but also from other states.

As demand continued to soar, the store underwent a renovation, transforming into a modern, sleek showroom with unique interior designs and air conditioning, further elevating the brand's appeal in Chickpet.

With the support and entry of his son, Ashish Tikare, Studio Bespoke was initiated, allowing clients to select fabrics in-house. This move towards customization proved immensely successful, even enduring the challenges posed by national events like demonetization.

The culmination of years of growth and evolution led to the birth of the brand Rhapso Label by Satish. The flagship store opened its doors in Jayanagar, providing a spacious and welcoming environment for clients to experience the brand's ethos of quality, craftsmanship, and customization first-hand.

Today, Rhapso stands as a testament to the dedication and vision of its Founder and Managing Director, blending traditional craftsmanship with modern trends to create bespoke menswear that resonates with clients far and wide.
