khadi fabric

The Khadi fabric has shaped the contemporary fashion of India. With its rich and cultural history, the fabric evokes memories of India's great past.  Khadi thus appropriately exemplifies the combination of independence, technology, and identity.

During the pre-independence time (1920) the era of Khadi fabric manufacturing began to flourish under the guidance of Mahatma Gandhi. Gandhi represented the fabric as a symbol of nationalism, equality, unity, non-violence, and self-reliance. The spinning of Khadi fabric with the Charkha, which means “wheel” is also the heart of the Indian Flag and was weaved by spinners and specialist weavers to project the Khadi Spirit of the Indians.
