Suta sisters built ethical fashion brand empowering Indian artisans
Sisters Sujata and Taniya Biswas have built a ₹75 crore ethical fashion brand, Suta, reviving handloom traditions and empowering over 14,000 artisans. The brand focuses on sustainable practices and purpose-driven design. The sisters left corporate jobs in 2016 to launch Suta, a brand rooted in handwoven sarees, aiming to make them accessible and support Indian weaving communities. Their minimalist aesthetic and ethical approach resonated with consumers. Suta's success, built through reinvested earnings, highlights the potential of slow fashion and community-building. The brand prioritizes fair wages, sustainable methods, and preserving India's textile heritage.
