our pillars

Social Sustainability

We are on a mission to empower rural women artisans and to have a positive influence on their lives and that of the community. By supporting them, we encourage the art's continued existence and the livelihood of the artisans who practice it.

Animal Welfare

We have been fur-free and leather-free since the beginning because we believe that animals deserve kindness. They cannot speak like us, but they can definitely feel pain just like us. Our continuous aim is to partner with organizations who facilitate the rescue and rehabilitation of animals.

OUR INITIATIVES

An annual fashion fundraiser that exemplifies our core philosophy of 'Fashion For Good'. This initiative is in support of nature and wildlife conservation.

REWILD’ 2023 - FASHION FOR GOOD

A fashion fundraiser hosted in the pink city surrounded by glamour and royalty.



Set against the historic backdrop of City Palace, Jaipur - the debut edition of Rewild is co-hosted by Princess Diya Kumari and Princess Gauravi in support of elephant conservation in South India.​

ABOUT NCF

We're collaborating with the Nature Conservation Foundation to support their efforts in minimising human-animal conflict and preserving elephant corridors along with our key Advisory Partner - Kartiki Gonsalves (Oscar-winning director of The Elephant Whisperers).​

TREE PLANTATION & FOREST PROTECTION

We have supported the planting of 25,000 trees for forests and wildlife as a part of Earth Day celebrations in April 2018 in collaboration with GROW-TREES.COM at Bassi Wildlife Sanctuary in the Chittorgarh district of Rajasthan (India) coupled with a unique consumer engagement campaign.

The path towards ensuring a more sustainable planet begins with ensuring the integrity of our ancient and endangered forests. Our partnership with NGO Canopy is one such step, making fabric and packaging choices that protect our forests.

COMMUNITY TAILORING UNITS

We began by setting up community tailoring (training and production) centres in rural Maharashtra with the partnership of the local government and village panchayats.​ These community tailoring centres are equipped with modern industrial sewing machines for making garments/ accessories as per contemporary designs and styles. The centres are provided with a regular supply of fabrics, tools, and organized buy-back of the tailored garments at fair per piece rates.​ This has resulted in a profound socio-economic impact amongst the communities being served.​
