About Us
At Bendát, we believe that every stitch tells a story, a story of heritage, artistry, and individuality. Rooted in the timeless traditions of Balochi embroidery, our journey began with a simple yet meaningful vision: to bring handcrafted craftsmanship into the world of modern fashion.
The name Bendát, meaning “the beginning” in Balochi, represents a fresh start for a centuries-old craft. Bendát is the Roman style of writing Balochi, pronounced as "Bendaat." While our website is bendaat.com, our brand name remains true to its roots, honoring its cultural authenticity.
Balochi embroidery is more than decoration, it is an art form carrying messages of grace, vibrance, and hospitality. This remarkable tradition dates back to the Mehrgarh civilization of 7000 BCE, where similar patterns were found on ancient pottery. Today, these intricate designs live on, passed through generations of skilled artisans who preserve their cultural identity through their craft.
At Bendát, we are inspired by this rich legacy. From the traditional Pashk, a beautifully embroidered dress with its signature triangular pocket, to contemporary takes on coats, frocks, and accessories, our collections seamlessly blend tradition with modern elegance. Each piece is a labor of love, crafted by skilled hands, fusing the old with the new.
But Bendát is about more than just creating clothing. It is about honoring the artisans behind each stitch. For generations, this craft has been a lifeline for many families, particularly women, who use their skills to support their households. By choosing Bendát, you are not just wearing something unique, you are helping preserve a culture and empowering the people who keep it alive.
Today, Bendát is more than a brand, it is a celebration of individuality, sustainability, and craftsmanship. Our mission is to ensure that this rich heritage continues to thrive, allowing traditional artistry to meet contemporary design in ways that feel both meaningful and timeless.
