This week our guest is Bandana Tewari. She is a lifestyle editor, bad-ass sustainable activist and formerly held the prestigious position of editor-at-large, as well as the fashion features director of Vogue India. She now writes for Business of Fashion, and speaks internationally on India’s fashion craft traditions, the lessons of Ghandi and the place of consciousness in fashion.
In this episode we talk about everything from spirituality and fashion, to the Western world's long history of appropriation and extractive relationships with Indian and other cultures, the impacts of colonization and capitalism, and importance of culture and diversity moving forward.
Its a rich and deep conversation and I hope you get as much out of it as I did.
We chat about:
-The lessons of Ghandi and the khadi movement
-Cultural appropriation and extractive relationships with ‘developing’ nations
-The importance of cultural diversity
-Spirituality and sustainability
-Ancient wisdom of Vedanta
