The objective behind coming up with this sustainable fashion brand is to offer fashion that empowers the Indian artisan community, especially women, and at the same time saves the planet. The brand has adopted a collaborative, inclusive, and community-driven strategy to pinpoint the key issues confronting Mother Nature. And thereby promoting sustainability and a prosperous future for all.
Answering the question, what motivated her to start Lifoholic Sustainable Fashion Brand. She says – I always believed that India is not only the land of rich diversified culture but also an affluent fabric-based fashion hub. Brand Lifoholic is an answer to leverage our opulent fashion products prepared indigenously by our artisan community. Even the tagline of our brand is ‘Incredibly Indian’.
The three guiding principles of Lifoholic are – Make In India, maximum style, and minimal harm to Mother Nature. The items are handcrafted utilizing the best materials and textiles that are manufactured in environmentally friendly ways and sourced directly from artisans from the length and breadth of the country.
