“I believe sustainable clothing is an unspoken conversation between the creator/designer and the admirer/wearer/customer. While tackling the negative environmental impacts, I also embrace my passion for the beauty of nature and colour and believe that the unique possibilities of what can be created by reusing, recycling and upcycling fabric waste are endless.” - Saraansh Gupta

redress Design Award Collection

Saraansh’s Redress Design Award collection, ‘Harmony in Disgrace’, is inspired by the technique of joining bias strips to make ‘Dori’ - a traditional Indian method of making fabric cord. He creates new textiles from this method, along with knitting and weaving to combine strips of upcycled deadstock and industry surplus textiles with secondhand clothing, allowing the transformation of even the most unappealing textile waste.
