Our Philosophy

Vaishali S, an eponymous label, is born out of designer Vaishali Shadangule's lifelong love for classic Indian weaves. Since its inception in 2004, the label has explored authentic hand-woven textiles from Chanderi silk to Khunn, a Karnataka native weave that Vaishali helped revive, while perennially telling culturally rich tales of the country's heritage. The brand endeavours to take these diverse, intricate traditions to theglobal stage through her renditions of classic weaves in unconventional silhouettes- making each Vaishali S creation a masterwork of wearable art that flaunts its rich history.

Our Weavers

In the last decade, we can proudly say that VAISHALI S Couture has become a modern window into the world of Indian luxury craftsmanship.

Since 2001, we have explored 12 Indian states and rediscovered over 15 different weaving techniques. We wish to continue this journey to discover all the hand-weaving traditions of India and the World.

Design and craftsmanship

For VAISHALI S Couture design is a transversal channel where artisanal crafts are combined with innovation and sustainability.

Vaishali S design language is deeply inspired by nature, shaping our silhouettes organically and mysteriously.

Through design, we aim to question the limits and possibilities of wearable art and produce a unique and powerful experience of quality, innovation, sustainability and cultural value.
