MAHESHWARI METALLIC SILK
Introduced in 2021 at the Breath Paris Haute Couture Show in a luminous gold, Vaishali S’s Maheshwari Metallic Silk has redefined the use of handwoven textiles in couture. This remarkable fabric is crafted in Maharashtra, where skilled artisans meticulously weave pure silk with zari threads on a silk core, achieving a unique, shimmering texture. For each new collection, designer Vaishali Shadangule collaborates closely with these artisans, personally selecting and developing new metallic hues—a complex process that can take up to five months, adding a fresh, radiant color story to her couture each season.
