The Art of Pintucks
The Art of Pintucks – A Signature Detail at Boheewohee
At Boheewohee, our story is stitched into every seam—and few details capture that philosophy better than the humble pintuck.
A pintuck might seem like a small thing: a narrow fold of fabric, sewn into place. But in our world of conscious fashion and quiet luxury, pintucks are far more than mere lines—they’re a celebration of craft, culture, and character.
What Are Pintucks?
Pintucks are tiny pleats or folds in fabric, typically sewn down to create a subtle raised ridge. Historically, they’ve been used to add structure, texture, and beauty to garments without the need for excess ornamentation. Think Edwardian blouses, vintage French linens, or handmade heirlooms passed down generations.
But at Boheewohee, we don’t just look back—we reinterpret.

Bohemian Modernity, Thread by Thread
Our pintuck designs draw from traditional Indian tailoring and global boho aesthetics, reimagined for the contemporary muse. Whether on flowing kurtas, layered dresses, or statement separates, each pintuck is a mark of patience and precision. It transforms a simple silhouette into something deeply dimensional—breathable, wearable, and full of soul.
