Handmade Over Fast Fashion Saree
The choice between handmade and fast fashion is, at its core, a choice about what you think clothing is for. Fast fashion says clothing is for looking a particular way this season and being replaced next. Handmade says clothing is for wearing, for keeping, for the particular quality of owning something that a person made with skill and intention.
At Mogasu, handmade means an artisan in Bagru, Rajasthan who spends between one and one and a half hours pressing a custom wooden block by hand onto natural fabric. It means colour matched without a shade card, by someone whose eye has been trained for years on the specific pigments and fabrics of traditional Indian block printing. It means a print that carries the evidence of its making in every slightly-variable impression.
Fast fashion sarees are made faster than that. And they look it, not at the moment of purchase, but six months later when the dye has faded and the fabric has thinned.
