Shilpi Yadav
Shilpi grew up in army cantonment and moved every two years. Her free spirit and the urge to experience new cultures and the diverse nature of our country developed at an early age. She’s an outdoor person and a fitness enthusiast. “If not design, then the only thing that I can imagine doing is something in fitness,” says Shilpi. She has been inclined towards all things creative since a very young age and other than sports, she loves painting and watercolors are what make her the happiest.

The beginning…
The urge to start something of her own and to call the shots at all times made her quit her corporate life and start her label in 2015. “Khara Kapas is an extension of me and everything I believe in and want to change. We proudly call ourselves one of the first few sustainable fashion brands. For me Khara Kapas is not just a brand but all the values that I stand for in my personal life,” shares the designer.
Khara Kapas
Khara Kapas literally means pure cotton in Hindi. Shilpi Yadav started the label with the belief that cotton, a native fabric to our country, was understated in the fashion world and she wanted to bring it to the forefront. Khara Kapas was not only able to give cotton a global appeal but also work on festive or occasion wear in breathable natural cotton. Their mulmul Shararas were a huge hit right from the launch itself, and now they work with everything natural and homegrown and strive to be a 100% sustainable brand with zero carbon footprint.
