Description

Rooted by Arpitharai Stories from below the surface. This podcast explores the quiet, often unseen forces shaping a more conscious fashion world. Hosted by fashion designer and storyteller Arpitha Rai, each episode features voices behind the seams—from upcyclers and fiber innovators to educators, artisans, and media changemakers. We uncover the roots of circular fashion, ethical systems, heritage, and creative resilience. For those drawn to stories that nourish slow fashion and mindful making—you're home. 🌱 New episodes every Sunday.
