Nnidhi Gandhi is a renowned Fashion designer and a woman who carries her passion for fashion and handloom in her heart. Her zeal and a massive love for redefining fashion has dropped her to the destination of fashion entrepreneurship.
Though Nnidhi originally hailed from a small village, she has never let this fact stop her from conquering her dreams. She carried a great enthusiasm and pursued her post-graduation from NIFT. Not only this, she successfully completed a course in Fashion Retail Management from the London School of Fashion in pursuit of her passion towards fashion.
Commencing from a small boutique to being a great entrepreneur, Nnidhi launched her own brand, 'Studio N' armed with all the necessary qualifications, style, and knowledge. But a good human never ceases to serve people. She wanted to do something more for society and the environment. This is when she chose the path of handloom weaving. The diminishing handloom apparel in today's era made her mind thunder with the responsibility to bring back handloom. With her creativity, she thrivingly embarked on another brand, Neemboli, a sustainable fashion brand.
She has an amazing ethnic wear collection, bridal collection, western outfits, and innumerable genres that lead her to be a successful fashionpreneur. Her steadfast efforts and solid research resulted in her being appointed as the Head Designer and Consultant in the Maharashtra Handloom Department. In January 2020, she was awarded by ex-CM of Maharashtra, Devendra Fadnavis for her commendable contribution to the Handloom Industry.
Today, she is on her way to mark her niche in the fashion and handloom industry and sustain our indigenous culture. She has launched India's first store of Solar Vastra "KUTIR", a pilot project by Kasturba Solar Khadi Mahila Samiti & Central government under KVIC umbrella.

Vision
Handloom weaving is one of the largest and most dynamic aspects of Indian cultural heritage. Predominantly, the weaker segments of society gain their livelihoods from the handloom industry. This sector not only supports the local artisans but also minimizes energy usage and is environmentally sustainable.
When Nnidhi encountered local weavers in and around the town of Nagpur, she realized that they were struggling to find jobs. India has a tradition of exclusive handloom weaving that is the largest in the world. But that is dying because the handloom industry is being slaughtered by lack of assistance and strategies.
It's not only about the livelihood of the 43 lakh artisans, a rich artistic heritage, but also about the slow death of a thousand-year-old culture. In order to bring these weavers on the national map and provide them a stable livelihood, she collaborated with them. It brings us great pleasure today to say that our efforts have paid off. Our vision is to now open franchise stores across Maharashtra. This will ensure weavers' daily income and also boost our expansion programs.
We also aim to highlight the Nagpur Handloom industry to the world through our brands. We envision StudioN, Neemboli, and Nnidhi Gandhi to make a mark not only in India but also in the global handloom industry.
