This beautiful jacket has a sturdy structure of coarsely spun cotton. The cotton is spun at home by a spinster and the fabric is then woven at home on a hand loom by a local weaver.

Local economy

Spinning and weaving at home is a godsend for many people in remote villages. They do not have to leave their village to go to work and they can make their own timetable for their work. In India, spinning and weaving at home has long been a crucial part of the local economy. It has almost completely disappeared with the rise of large cotton factories and the fast fashion industry. Cotton Rack gives people a chance by having the fabrics for their collection made by people in the villages.
