Ep 237: Why Indian Fashion is so Hot Right Now (and Always Was)
R|ElanTM Circular Design Challenge in partnership with the United Nations in India brings you a circular fashion mini-series with the chart-topping podcast, The Wardrobe Crisis, starting with a delightful conversation with stylist Daniel Franklin.
THE WARDROBE CRISIS is a sustainable fashion platform that stands for a fairer, greener, cleaner fashion future that respects people and planet and recognises the power of dialogue, listening and learning. The chart-topping podcast launched in July 2017 is now in its 11th series. Each week, host Clare Press interviews designers, change-makers, academics, creatives and fashion insiders about fashion, ethics, social justice and environmental sustainability.
In this episode, Daniel unpacks sustainability, innovation & high craft with R|Elan™ Circular Design Challenge at Lakme Fashion Week! Apart from this, Daniel contextualises India’s new gen talent explosion. So expect to learn the new names-to-know and what makes them tick. But Daniel studied fashion history before breaking into magazines, and this is a far-ranging discussion that gallops through the myth of the Silk Route to the truth of the colonial hangover, via a tour of India’s unparalleled craft heritage.
“When R|Elan Circular Design Challenge came my way, I was very excited and immediately went in to research on each of the brands I was working with. It’s really exciting to interact with designers from different parts of the world- they all bring such a different perspective. It’s my third season doing CDC, so I’m quite attached to it.”
