Independent thinkers
Reading a newspaper was simply not part of the artisansÕ lives. Many of the women cannot read or write and they have little free time. Now, thanks to the cooperativesÕ weekly newspaper discussion groups, the women have become enthusiastic consumers of all types of news. The articles, chosen by an artisan on a rotating basis, are read aloud and then discussed, giving the women the opportunity to learn, share, be inspired, and, sometimes, laugh. Each group keeps a record of the articles for reference.

This shirt is gorgeous and unique. The kind of patterns that Marketplace India sells are both universally flattering, and also speak of the artistry of India. I love it!

So happy to support empowering women in this way. Like the cut and embroidery of this shirt. Surprised to find the reality of the fabric coloration is muddier/duller than the photo depicts, but I'm still happy to have this shirt.
A versatile, comfortable choice

The Namrita shirt was a great choice. It has a very attractive design and colors, and I can wear it either by itself or over a tank top. It looks great either way, and I can wear it to work or for more casual events.
