I'm Vaishali, a textile designer. I like the loom and making things with it. While innovating, I simplify processes for makers.

​

Craft drives me. Color pulls me in. Texture brings joy.

​​

My work explores surfaces, composition, and stories that fit technique and manufacturing.

Hi there !

 


I am Vaishali Kasibhatla, a Textile and Apparel designer, graduated from National Institute of Design, Andhra Pradesh.

I’ve worked closely with crafts across India from silk and cotton wovens to zardozi, embroidery, applique, block printing often in collaboration with artisans.

These experiences have shaped my love for indigenous practices, sustainability, and the beauty of materials.
Beyond this, I enjoy films of all kinds, soupy Asian food, and documenting everyday cultural details that continue to inspire my design journey.
