"The creation of the world did not occur at the beginning of time, it occurs every day."
-Marcel Proust, In Search of Lost Time, vol. 3, The Guermantes Way, 1925
Craft. Memory. Revolution. Est. 2020 | Textile-first. Community-led. Crafted in India.
Founded by Kareena Oberoi, the textile studio began as a visual experiment—merch for music collectives and record labels—and evolved into a textile atelier championing India’s ancient crafts with an unflinching, forward gaze.
In 2023, the brand fully pivoted into textiles. It all began as a homage: a model for fashion as social activism. Today, Acid Moons works with clusters across Bihar, Andhra Pradesh, West Bengal, and Rajasthan and uses over 80% reclaimed fabrics for their collections.
🪡 Artisanal Techniques
Kalamkari, kantha, appliqué, aari, crochet—our collections are shaped by the practiced hands of master artisans from across India. We collaborate directly with craft clusters in Andhra Pradesh, Jaipur, Bihar, and West Bengal to preserve these living traditions and reinterpret them through a contemporary, gender-fluid lens.
🔗 Transparent Supply Chain
Every piece we create is made within a 300-mile radius—from the hand-loomed fabric to final stitch. Our supply chain is fully traced and intentionally local, allowing us to stay close to our makers and move at a slower, more conscious rhythm.
🏠 Local Roots
Acid Moons was born in a New Delhi living room and still lives with the same spirit. 100% of our garments are crafted locally, allowing us to nurture meaningful relationships with the people behind the work and remain deeply connected to the place we call home.
♻️ Reclaimed Materials
We work with rescued cotton and linen—deadstock fabrics left behind by factories and warehouses. By giving these materials a second life, we reduce waste and celebrate imperfection. Each drop is limited and distinct, shaped by what we find rather than what we forecast.
🤝 Partnered with Insha-e-Noor
We proudly partner with Insha-e-Noor, a Delhi-based initiative supporting women artisans through training, fair wages, and dignified work. Their spirit flows through many of our pieces—quietly defiant, skillfully made, and rooted in care.
''acid moons – almost everyone who I meet, asks me the story behind the name.
the brand was born as a late night candle-lit musing when my sister & I were just kids: filled with intuitive wonder and eager to explore the world. she said 'acid', and I said 'moons'. we locked eyes, and that was it.
it was a ritual she & I shared. of creative exploration. crayons. sheets of paper. drawing on the walls. childhood dreams of faraway lands. learning the guitar. making core memories. long evenings reading into the night. free-will & total creative freedom.
I aim to embody the same philosophy in Acid Moons to champion long-lasting change in the ecosystem of craft, heirloom lineage & material memory."
