About Nesara

Nesara dresses are hand sewn using lightweight cotton fabric. Our textiles are hand stamped and dyed using organic vegetable dyes by artisans in India using a technique known as block printing. Because the fabrics are handmade, variations in color and pattern are a part of the uniqueness of each piece. Indian textiles are used around the world in the production of clothing, yet, you rarely see South Asian culture represented within the brands using these fabrics. As a South Asian woman, this has always stood out to me. As I build this brand and forge partnerships with artisans in India, I hope to change that narrative. The cotton fabric we use is more than a textile - it is a craft, a tradition, a livelihood and a snapshot of the beauty that can be found in India. Read their story
