CURATOR'S NOTE
Like moonlight woven into fabric, the Chandni Veil Dress is a poetic embrace of softness and elegance. Crafted in ethereal white, its flowing silhouette captures the quiet glow of the night sky. Delicate textures and airy layers create a dreamy effect, while subtle details—gentle gathers, a cinched waist, or a translucent overlay—whisper stories of grace. Designed for those who carry a touch of the moon wherever they go.
We collect offcuts waste from garment factories. All these offcuts have been cut into tiny scraps and tediously sewn back together to form a liner yarn. This liner yarn is then hand-woven into our fabric. This process is time-consuming and difficult but it is as beautifully unique as it is kind to the planet.
The piece may not look exactly like the image but the overall look and feel of the piece are not changed.
It has been uniquely made and designed for you.
THE DESIGNER STORY
We started with the aim to reduce and reuse waste produced by our parent company Shivam International- a company that manufactures garments and exports them. And in the process of upcycling what we receive from the company, we utilize crafts that are indigenous to India. We started with our focus on handloom weaving, specifically on rag rug weaving. We enjoy perceiving crafts that would be considered low brow by larger populous through the lens of quality and design. This for us is an act of rebellion against conventional luxury norms a fact that amuses us on this zero waste journey. Introducing and inculcating quality and design within a traditional craft also allows the craftspeople to fetch a fair wage and not just a minimum wage.
Women throughout history who have dared to foster independent thinking have been accused to be under the influence of the moon. 'Moon Wash' celebrates these personalities from yesterday, today and tomorrow. Moon Wash is a celebration of these independent thinkers, change-makers, our inspiration, who paved the way for us to exist. Moon Wash is a celebration of moon washed people. Moon Wash is a celebration of you.
