Americans love to buy clothes, and they take their style cues from many places around the world to put together a look that’s unique. Many Americans, however, are becoming aware of how global textile and clothing industries harm the planet, and want to make more responsible clothing choices. At Divine Ray, we offer beautiful Khadi shirts and scarves made by rural artisans with processes that do not require use of electricity.
Traditional Textile Production Consumes Vast Amounts of Energy
Mass textile production requires a lot of resources, including a lot of electricity. By purchasing hand woven shirts made by individuals instead of factories, you support an industry that far less harmful to the environment, and you support workers who can make a living without leaving their home to move to a large industrial area. Khadi shirts also happen to be comfortable and great looking too.
With Many Clothing Items, Simpler Is Better for Lasting Style
Even if you keep up with fashion trends, chances are you have several classics in your wardrobe that will never go out of style. Simple, hand woven shirts from India in a variety of colors possess timeless style and can be worn for years to complement a number of different looks. You’ll also love how comfortable they are, particularly during the hot summer months.
Products of Rural Industries Are Making it to Major World Markets Now
Technology and communications advances are allowing products made by individuals rather than by factories to reach markets located on the other side of the globe. You may never travel to India, but you can purchase and appreciate products made by hand that offer classic styling and that are made using environmentally and socially responsible methods.
Buy Clothing That’s Better for Workers and for the Planet
Think about where your clothing comes from. Wouldn’t you like to look great while supporting production methods that are easier on the environment and that support people who take the time to craft them? At Divine Ray, we bring environmentally friendly and socially responsible hand woven clothing to the American consumer, providing options that simply aren’t available from mass market textile and clothing producers.
