one of the main life lessons we learnt in the year 2020, was that in an instant the entire world and our lives can turn upside down. one day, we’re going to work or to college and the next we’re too afraid to step out of our houses. but even the darkest clouds have a silver lining, people used this time to rediscover themselves and found solace in the simple moments. mindfulness, and gratefulness became the main emotions people tried to focus on. aastey was the byproduct of that.

the core values of aastey are self love, acceptance and being present in every moment, big or small.

the pandemic also turned the fashion world on its feet. the days of in person shopping and wasteful spending are of the past. we have gone from style first to comfort first. this shift in mindset has opened up an arena for athleisure fashion. athletic and leisure wear combined together make an ironic duo, but one that is most essential these days.

unfortunately with the birth of athleisure wear, the problem of size inclusivity becomes glaring. performance wear has always been created to cater a certain body type, perpetuating a negative connotation and acting as a demotivator for so many. this is where, aastey comes in. we at aastey want to change this stereotype and build a community where people feel comfortable in their skin while finding peace and joy in the little things.
