Meet the Founder

Hi, I’m Vandy — a fashion designer by profession, and a conscious creator at heart.

I began my journey at NIFT, where I trained in fashion design. Straight out of college, I got placed in a leading export house and began designing for some of the biggest international brands. It was an exciting time, but also eye-opening — I saw firsthand the sheer scale of fabric waste, fast fashion, and unsustainable practices. It stayed with me.

Driven to explore fashion more meaningfully, I moved to London to pursue my Master’s at Central Saint Martins. After returning to Mumbai, I resumed working with global brands — but somewhere deep inside, I knew I wanted more than just a job.

When my daughter was born, everything shifted. I wanted to build something of my own, something honest — for her and for me. That’s when I started ‘Mini Me’, my own brand in Mumbai.

A few years later, we made a life-changing decision — to move back to Kochi. We wanted a slower, more intentional life close to our roots, and for our daughter to grow up surrounded by her grandparents.

During the pandemic, I began creating pure cotton masks from leftover fabrics I had saved over the years. The response was overwhelming — people found comfort, joy, and safety in something as simple as a well-made mask. That spark reignited my purpose.

So I opened my store in my childhood home and named it House of Vandy — a space that brings together design, sustainability, and stories from across India. It’s not just a store; it’s a reflection of everything I believe in.

Welcome to my world.
