What makes I Was a Sari accessories sustainable?
Each piece is made from existing sari fabric rather than new materials, keeping textiles out of landfill. Production is hand-finished and small-batch, and every purchase supports fair, dignified work for women artisans in India.
What's included in the accessories collection?
The collection covers everyday styling and statement pieces across every category:
- Wraps & scarves: Lightweight layers that finish any outfit.
- Foulards: Soft square scarves, endlessly versatile.
- Stoles: Handcrafted wraps for seasonless layering.
- Headpieces: Turbans and headwear in unique prints.
- Scrunchies: Playful hair accessories from upcycled fabric.
Why is every piece unique?
Because each one is made from a different sari, no two accessories share the same colour, print or texture. Every piece is timeless and easy to wear.
Made by women artisans in Mumbai
From cutting to finishing, every piece is shaped by hand — circular craftsmanship that turns forgotten textiles into lasting, wearable design.
