Our Journey
At the crossroads of art and fashion, Asaii unfolds its narrative, embodying the spirit of craftsmanship and individual storytelling. Every garment in our collections serves as a canvas, meticulously hand-painted by skilled artists who translate memories, emotions, and history onto wearable masterpieces. Utilizing natural, plant-based paints, sourced with care, underscores our deep commitment to sustainable practices.
Asaii's essence lies in crafting timeless investment pieces, garments that transcend fleeting fashion trends to become cherished essentials in your wardrobe. As a brand, Asaii invites you to revel in the jubilation of life's myriad narratives. Each piece is a wearable work of art, inviting you to embrace the stories and emotions woven into every stitch, making the act of getting dressed a profoundly meaningful experience.
The name Asaii emerges from the harmonious blend of 'Us' and 'I', symbolizing the unity of collective narratives and individual expressions.
Timeless and Capsule Collections
Asaii specializes in crafting Shirts, Trousers, and Shorts categorized under: Solids, Painted Variations and Custom Stories made exclusively from 100% natural fabrics. Our design philosophy pivots away from fleeting trends, embracing enduring style that transcends seasons.
Every solid garment serves as a blank canvas for our hand-painted stories, ensuring each piece is revitalized and distinct with every new narrative. Witness the transformation of a single solid piece through limitless variations, offering it an endless and unique makeover with each new painting.
Andante Asaii: Rest is productive.
Given that almost everything we do is a craft of hand, Andante Asaii is a philosophy intricately woven into the essence of our craft. "Andante," signifying a deliberate, unhurried pace, perfectly aligns with the ethos of Asaii. This approach, reflected in both our products and communication, encapsulates the art of slow and conscious living.
In a world that often races against the clock, we advocate for a different tempo—a harmonious blend of craftsmanship and mindful existence. We embrace the beauty of taking a pause, allowing ourselves to revel in the simplicity that surrounds us. The Andante Asaii philosophy reminds us that in these moments of respite, we not only recharge but elevate both productivity and well-being. It's a celebration of the unhurried, a melody of intentional living woven into every fabric and thread.

Nimisha Bathla
Founder / Creative Director at Asaii
From commerce student to NIFT graduate and seasoned designer, Nimisha's journey has been far from ordinary. After working as a menswear designer, she took her pursuit of design to France, gaining valuable insights into aesthetics, creativity and fashion management. Back in India, Nimisha delved into merchandising for international buyers, yet her heart yearned for something more.
Growing up in a conservative family, Nimisha's father's insistence on shirts became her signature. Her childhood, colored by her mother's artistry on various mediums, planted the seeds of creativity in her. Asaii, a product of her experiences and stories, reflects the essence of familiarity and comfort - from the loose shirts to the hand-painted stories on them.
She epitomises the art of keeping design simple yet special. Drawing inspiration from real life, she has a unique talent for turning the mundane into magic.
