New Bramvik Revolutionary Skirts as the Ultimate Wardrobe Solution to Conquer the Fashion Industry Launches on Kickstarter and is Successfully Funded Within 2 hours

BRAMVIK, a revolutionary clothing brand, launched their patent-pending customizable zipper skirts, also known as Zirts, on March 4th on Kickstarter and hit their goal in 2 hours. These highly innovative skirts consist of two styles, straight chino, and A-line, and feature a mini/base skirt to which extensions called tiers can be added or detached by means of premium quality zippers. Each tier is reversible and can be interchanged between Zirts thus ensuring you never run out of unique outfit options as seen in this video. Read news here.

"With Zirts, you can change the colors, patterns and length of the skirt in a jiffy," said Zirts Co-founder Prasad Bakkamanthala. "This allows you to wear thousands of skirt combinations with only a few Zirts. It's the only skirt that grows with you. Also, for little girls, it is like playing with the Legos, where they can mix and match to build something fun and beautiful." Be alert to read related news.

Prasad notes that Zirts are especially ideal for young girls, providing them multiple styles and the ability to tap into their creative side when choosing something to wear.

As part of the initial launch, Zirts were available in ten solid colors which can be worn with colorful, interchangeable 'tiers' that can be used to create custom designs with any color skirt. Additional solid colors and patterns (prints) will be available later based on demand.

"We are absolutely thrilled to finally present girls and women with an original, stylish and travel- light dressing solution that will save them time, energy and resources as they get ready to face the day," said Rama and Prasad, the creators of Zirts. "Since we are fully funded, we are all set to launch these skirts and introduce them to the world," they added. The focus is on the durability, comfort, and versatility of the apparel which is specifically designed with the modern woman in mind, all this without compromising on quality while keeping an eye on adopting sustainable practices. "We want our customers to fully embrace their unique personalities the best way they know how to: through the Zirt of their choice!" added Prasad.

Made using 100% cotton, the product is fit for a hectic day. It is super comfortable, and supports mobility. It never irritates, itches or discomforts in any of way. Cotton was produced by BCI certified farmers. BCI stands for Better Cotton Initiative which is a holistic approach to sustainable cotton production which covers all three pillars of sustainability: environmental, social and economic.

Luxury is all about comfort, style and feeling good. Zirt comes with flaps to cover the zippers on both the front and back side so they don't touch the skin, making it comfortable if seated for a long duration. It also features large pockets which can fit most cellphone models.

Prasad adds that Zirts are ideal for parents of twins or multiple children, offering each the ability to create their own cute matching look while affording them the flexibility to choose the colors and prints they love. And although it is not easy to find skirts for taller girls or women, Zirts will enable the wearer to increase the length of their skirt as needed by simply attaching additional tiers.

"Zippers are the backbone of Zirts. We have created hundreds of prototypes and tried several types of zippers. We then found a perfect zipper that is durable, flexible and lightweight, and are working with one of the major zipper manufacturers in the world. These zippers have been tested and meet human, ecological and CPSIA requirements. Zirts are machine washable!" added the Husband-wife team.

"This is the best idea ever to keep in contact with patients via text and lead them through the recovery process & physical therapy exercises. I always looked forward to getting my text messages and they were always pertinent to where I was & what I was thinking in the post-surgery process. Thank you!"

"The text messages reminded me to perform different exercises in a timely manner and be patient with the recovery during painful time from the surgery. It makes you feel like you're not alone in this long process! What a great concept, really glad I had it for my knee replacement."

"The Digital Coach was very helpful. Best way to get information before and after surgery, especially when you need help. I didn't want the messages to end! They are my support every day!"
