Nurture the Next Chapter
Calling all ladies who love pretty clothes and accessories that tell a story - are curious about craft, culture and the art of textile design and love a wardrobe made of pieces they truly cherish. If that is you, read on!
Hi there! Maxine here -founder, creative director and the passion behind Kafi Folk. I believe in supporting craft, culture, and community and this is what I build my brand values on.
When I founded Kafi Folk in 2019, the values of craft, culture and community were in my heart, but I didn’t fully understand how to bring them to life. After six years of learning and exploring the fashion and textile industry, I’m ready to begin another chapter - growing into these values fully and authentically.
What 2026 Will Bring
Next year, we’ll celebrate craft like never before. Expect more variety in fabrics, designs, and storytelling. Our new partnerships include:
- Natural dyeing studio, Pune - handwoven textiles and designs in unique dye techniques.
- 4th-generation women-led block print house, Jaipur - soft cotton block prints in your favourite silhouettes year-round.
- Ikat weaving family, Telangana - naturally dyed loom-woven ikat skirts, shirt dresses and evening gowns.
- Kalbelia community, Bundi - hand embroidered one-of-a-kind kaftans telling stories through thread.
- 5th-generation studio, Bagru - earthy tones and natural pigments in block printed cotton
- 4th generation natural dyeing studio - Bagru - natural and indigo dyed creations on mulberry silk and soft wool for a beautiful fall collection.
- New designer, Mumbai - collaborating to create fresh silhouettes and design ideas.
- Local Jaipur NGO – supporting free education for slum children and women, helping build brighter futures through learning.
Through these collaborations, we'll tell the story of every fabric, every hand, every tradition - creating authentic, ethically made clothing that carries its story beautifully.
Help Nurture the Next Chapter
I believe in the strength and support of a community. When coming together, more beauty can evolve and more opportunity can arise for those around us. For this reason, I'm offering the opportunity to be apart of an inner circle where you'll gain exclusive behind-the-scenes access to our 2026 collection process, early previews of our collections and drops before they go online, and the joy of supporting craft, community and culture along the way.
How can I be apart of this inner circle?
By purchasing Kafi Folk credit to support the next chapter. We've now launched a new credit initiative where you can purchase Kafi Folk credit to shop any Kafi Folk garment or accessory from our 2026 collections and drops starting January 2026.
We have four nurture tiers to choose from and can be viewed in the link below.
How does it work?
On purchasing your credit, you will receive a reply email from me personally within 24 hours, providing you a unique code that will be active with your credit when our first drop launches in 2026. This code will be active to redeem within a one year time frame.
Building A World We Want To Live In
This isn’t just an initiative - it’s a way to experience our process more closely and connect with our mission: to create not only beautiful pieces for you to wear, but to celebrate, support and preserve craft, culture, and community - the very things we believe in and want to see more of in the world.
