Renewing Materials, New Lives
MarketPlace's Chindi collection makes scraps stylish while training new artisans. The chindi, small fabric pieces left over from cutting garments, are recycled into new clothing, accessories and embellishments in a variety of ways. After being cut into uniform pieces, the chindi are sewn together by trainees learning to sew straight and accurate seams on the sewing machines. Look for the C sign next to products to see the creative ways the artisans have incorporated chindis.

I often need something to protect my neck and shoulders from air-conditioning drafts. This lightweight jacket is the perfect solution. Though made of woven material, the fabric is light and yet its double-layer kimono collar perfectly protects the back of my neck. The jacket's short length is another bonus; I spend so much time working on a computer that a longer jacket would probably get wrinkled. Beyond its practical advantages, what attracted me to the jacket was its design and color. As with everything else I've purchased from Marketplace India, the jacket's silhouette, its colors and fabric pattern, and the handiwork involved in its construction are exceptional. Thank you!
