Janota Goa

The Janota label, Janota meaning style, chique in Portuguese, is the creation of Angela & Edwin Pinto who live in the beautiful beach state of Goa, India. Angela has been making clothes since she was 12 yrs. old. Besides some basic training she is mainly self taught. Initially she made clothes for herself and her family – gradually her clientele grew. After marriage she & Edwin – who was trained in pattern making & garment construction – made all types of garments ranging from Police Uniforms to Bridal Gowns. Today Angela and her team of 15 girls, who she has trained, design & produce almost anything in fabric – from lampshades to hats & bags – from cushions to skirts and dresses.
