India’s Return to Slow Fashion

In this segment of the YouTube interview titled “India’s Return to Slow Fashion,” host Will Lasry and a second speaker discuss the pervasive stigmas attached to Indian-made products, largely stemming from the country's association with fast‑fashion manufacturing. They explore how these perceptions hinder the promotion of slow‑fashion initiatives that emphasize craftsmanship, handwork, and sustainability. The conversation highlights the difficulty of persuading brands to prioritize workmanship over low price tags, noting that the relentless pursuit of fast fashion generates massive waste. Both participants agree that a shift toward slow fashion is both necessary and timely, positioning it as a solution to environmental waste and a way to reshape India’s fashion narrative.
