VAISHALI S, an eponymous brand, is borne out of designer Vaishali Shadangule’s genuine affection and passion for the classic Indian weaves. Working with authentic woven textiles, perennially telling a culturally-rich tale about the country’s heritage, the brand has endeavoured to lend the Indian handloom weave a global design language of expression since March 2001. We’re all about celebrating the exquisite handloom weave. And there is at least one in each of the 29 states of the country! Hand-woven textiles and handloom weaves have traditionally been in our DNA. Since the inception of VAISHALI S almost 20 years ago, the brand has stayed committed to the indigenous weaver. We envision the handloom weave making its way into our lives on a much higher plane — we perceive and treat Indian hand-woven textiles as wearable art forms. With everything we’re doing today, the aim is to shift the “Made in India” tag from behind the scenes to mainstream design. The entire focus is on the weaving itself, keeping the very soul of this traditional craft form untouched throughout the design process. We consciously choose to work with female artisans and weavers across the country, thus empowering and enabling them to make informed choices that progressively enrich their lives.
