IRO IRO: Crafting a Circular Tapestry from Waste
In the heart of Jaipur, the circular design collective IRO IRO weaves a unique narrative of innovation, conscious craftsmanship, and prosperity. Breaking free from conventional fashion norms, IRO IRO's journey is defined by the artful transformation of garment offcuts into handwoven fabrics that breathe new life into the discarded.
The process begins with a collection of offcuts meticulously gathered from garment factories. These seemingly insignificant remnants are then transformed into tiny scraps, carefully sewn back together to create a distinctive liner yarn. This intricate material is the soul of IRO IRO's creations, a testament to their commitment to upcycling and environmental kindness.
