With an intent to support sustainable livelihoods and promote eco-friendly clothing, the social enterprise, India Handmade Collective (IHC) brings a Natural Dye Handmade exhibition to Hyderabad. The three-day exhibition of clothing and artisanal products celebrating sustainability is on at CCT Spaces, Crafts Council of Telangana in Banjara Hills, from April 19 to 21. “The feel of a handspun and handwoven fabric is much nicer than a plain handwoven fabric,” says Mahima Tanggapan, co-ordinator, IHC referring to the exhibition’s significance.
With more than 10 brands including Blue Lotus, Tula India, Porgai, Nature Alley and Khamir from across the country displaying their collection for women, men and children, the exhibition also showcases sustainable utility and artisanal crafts, accessories, home decor, jewellery, workshops on natural home cleaners, floral eco printing and an e-waste collection drive.
