<p>Hi Sarah,</p>
<p>This is extremely interesting. I'm a second year student of Fashion Management (one year later than everyone else in here it seems). We have a few lectures in every unit about CSR and production of fashion, but only in this second year - not otherwise.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The major thing though, is that I'm about to plan a term in the PEARL Academy, New Delhi. SO if anyone in here has experience with that school please tell me about it!</p>

I'm a second year fashion student and really interested in ethical fashion and textiles. Where will I be able to see your blog, would be really interested to read what you find in India. My course is part of Bournemouth uni and they are pretty rubbish in this area, we don't have any special lectures in this area. I did my first year at Winchester School of Art and they were much better with a good focus on the ethical side of fashion and textiles.<br />

I do as much as I can to find out my own information in this area as it will be my sole focus on graduating and I too am really interested in finding places in India where I can get designs made as ethically as possible and source ethical fabrics.

OPPORTUNITY to work with CREATIVE TEAM on ETHICAL COLLECTION made in INDIA, all EMBROIDERED by hand<br />
We are a small team of creative (fashion, architecture, graphics) launching an ethical tops collection embroidered by hand and manufactured in India, around a fantastic concept cutting down waste, bringing to the front hand crafts... and we need help on different levels.

If you could have a few hours per week free to give us a hand, i would be happy to tell u more and show you where we are upt to... please do not hesitate to email me at malvinaldine@hotmail.com<br />

Hi Emma,<br />
<br />
Apologies for not being in touch sooner- I am still trying to find out the exact names of the places I visited. You know what it's like, I planned to go to one factory and then ended up getting driven around all over the place been shown things unexpectedly!<br />
<br />
I stayed in Modinagar which is about 45km outside Delhi. Part of the old textile factory is still in operation, mainly dying facilities, however all the old equipment is still there for the pre-treating, printing and finishing…

<br />
Apologies for not being in touch sooner- I am still trying to find out the exact names of the places I visited. You know what it's like, I planned to go to one factory and then ended up getting driven around all over the place been shown things unexpectedly!<br />
<br />
I stayed in Modinagar which is about 45km outside Delhi. Part of the old textile factory is still in operation, mainly dying facilities, however all the old equipment is still there for the pre-treating, printing and finishing processes. This is attached to IIFA college on the main high street.<br />
<br />
I also travelled to Jaipur and visited a block printing workshop in a small village 16km outside Jaipur called Sanganer, which is renowned for it's block printing history. You can get a public bus from Jaipur.<br />
<br />
I then visited Noida area and went to a printing factory called Ajanta dyers. There are a few more that I visited around that area but like I say, I am unsure on their names. Once you get to Noida and into one of the factories, people can generally point you in the right direction.<br />
<br />
I hope this helps, sorry I can’t be more specific!<br />

Hi Sarah,<br />
<br />
I would be really interested in reading your blog and would love to be kept up to date with your weekly info.<br />
I am at present going into my second year at Coventry Uni doing a BA in Fashion Design, so far we haven't done anything to do with ethical fashion and everything I have done so far has been my own research.<br />
<br />
Good luck with your travels<br />

I have just completed fashion and textiles BA where i spent most of my time studying ethical fashion. i am also very interested in textiles dye and prodution in india as it is such a large industry with good and bad practice so anything i can learn during my visit will help me in making decisions in the future.<br />

what is the best way to contact the companies....email/phone?<br />

Thats cool when will you be in Delhi/Noida. Noidas the Industrial area, full of Sectors its pretty confusing so you will need a driver or make contact with the company and they can arrange a pick up. I can definatly give you the details of three companies in Noida, how are related to Azo-free dying, major garment production and high end upholstrys.<br />
