Slow Fashion Made Slowly - Support Your Local Spice Girl - remaking with textiles waste

About

Krishma Sabbarwal’s fashion brand is rooted in sustainability and creativity. She works with waste textiles and found garments, transforming materials that might end up in landfill into something beautiful and valuable. This process is challenging, yet deeply rewarding. It gives her the freedom to explore innovative textile techniques and to create designs that feel alive: colourful, bold, full of personality and culture. It's HAUTE CULTURE.

Her collections often carry quiet political undertones and have received international attention through exhibitions, platforms, and competitions. Each piece reflects her Indian heritage, personal memories, and sense of humour. Through her work, Krishma uses her creative voice to inspire positive change within the fashion industry. She stands alongside other emerging designers who are shaping a more inclusive and thoughtful future for fashion.

Krishma holds a First-Class BA (Hons) from the University of East London and a Distinction in MA Fashion Design (Sustainable and Ethical) from Northumbria University. She's a nerd like that.

The story

During her career, Krishma Sabbarwal has been involved in numerous platforms and opportunities that have influenced her design process and gained international recognition through competitions such as Mittelmoda Fashion Awards, Mikeysline x Fashion Week Online, and FAD x Fashion Scout.

"Being selected for these fashion programs and opportunities is so rewarding. I gain a lot of personal development, meet other designers, broaden my knowledge and network, and it keeps me creative and innovative. My two favourite experiences so far have been being selected as a Finalist for Scouting for India x Vogue Italia and being a designer in conversation at the V&A for Gal-Dem Magazine. It's so special to be selected and acknowledged as a creative of colour through these opportunities." - Krishma Sabbarwal.

Krishma Sabbarwal is an emerging fashion brand built on creativity, care, and craftsmanship. Founded by designer Krishma Sabbarwal, the brand celebrates slow fashion, upcycling, and sustainable design through a mix of playfulness, storytelling, and cultural connection. Each garment is made with intention, using found materials and textile waste to create something new from what already exists. Sustainability and craft lead the design process.

Krishma draws from her Indian and British heritage, blending traditional craft with modern ideas. Her designs carry a sense of history and experimentation, revealing the beauty in process and material.

After being selected for Mercedes Benz Moscow Fashion Week’s Global Talents program and receiving recognition from both peers and international media, Krishma established her label to continue exploring the potential of thoughtful design. Working independently, she embraces the true spirit of slow fashion. Each piece is made with purpose, time, care, and consciousness. The result is clothing that holds integrity, emotion, and meaning.
