THE SKIRT JOURNEY
A little over a year ago, I got a message from a stranger: “I work in fashion in India — come, we can make something together.” A few weeks later I was on a one-way flight, landing in a town so far off the tourist map I didn’t see another traveler the whole time I was there.
I wanted to create skirts that felt as meaningful as the journeys they would go on — beautiful, durable, and made by hand, by people I actually know. So I stayed. I shared tea, stories, and long days of work with the artisans and tailors behind each piece, and learned how a single length of fabric becomes something you’ll keep for years.
MADE BY HANDS WE KNOW
Many of our pieces are made by people we've had the privilege of knowing personally—not anonymous production lines.
Some are sewn by single mothers working from their family homes. Others are crafted in small workshops where skills have been passed from father to son, generation after generation.
To us, fashion is about more than the finished product. It's about the people behind it.
We believe every garment should have a story, and every person who helps create it deserves to be known, valued, and celebrated by name.
One sari. One piece. Never again.
The vintage saris we cut into one-of-one wraps and dresses are sourced personally, by hand, in Jaipur's flea markets. Each one has its own weave, history, and color story.
By choosing vintage saris, we're giving existing textiles a second life instead of creating demand for new fabric. Every sari we rescue is transformed into wrap skirts, dresses, scrunchies, tops, and other small pieces, helping keep beautiful materials in circulation and reducing textile waste that might otherwise end up in landfills.
When we cut into it, the piece that comes out can never be made again. That's the whole point—when it's gone, it's gone.
