Before sustainable clothing began trending a few years ago, some designers had already noticed the irreversible impact fast fashion had on our environment – and Shubhra Bhattacharya Chandra is one of them. In 2008 — after an extensive fashion education at the National Institute of Fashion Technology and Michigan State University, as well as years of experience working with prominent fashion companies — she founded her sustainable fusion fashion company, Shubrah. She repurposes the rich, cultural garments of India such as saris and other textiles into her designs, mitigating some of the wastage of today’s fast-paced fashion world. In addition to fashion entrepreneurship, she is also a singer, Broadway fanatic, mother, and college advisor. She loves working with women to showcase their talents and encouraging them to enter the arts. She spoke with Women Who Win on her inspirations and journey.
