Mallika Reddy (Cancelled Plans)

This week, on Voices For Local, Monisha gets into conversation with Mallika Reddy, who believes cancelled plans lead to the best outcomes. Naturally, she named her sustainable streetwear fashion brand… you guessed it – Cancelled Plans. She tells Monisha what it’s like experimenting and using unconventional materials, like the time she created a jacket made out of condoms. Monisha asks her how her artisans adapt to new, unfamiliar materials, why she loves collaborating, and how to be truly sustainable while running a viable business. 

To check out Cancelled Plans’ work, log onto their website www.cancelledplans.com, and follow their journey on Instagram @cancelledplans.club.
