Chai and Chat: From Fast Fashion to Upcycling with Rukhsana Sardar

Join Sampad South Asian Arts and Heritage and Rukhsana Sardar for an evening of conversation and creativity.

Rukhsana shares her journey from an international career in the fast-fashion industry to building her own sustainable upcycling fashion business.

From working across the world to rescuing unwanted clothing, Rukhsana will talk about what inspired her to make a change, what she has learned along the way and how she gives textiles a second life.

The evening will include a chance to hear more about Rukhsana's journey, discover practical ideas for rethinking the clothes and fabrics you already have and ask questions during a Q&A.

Got an upcycling project you're stuck on? Bring it along! Participants are welcome to bring a piece or project they'd like advice on and ask Rukhsana for her ideas during the Q&A.

Come along, have a chat, and leave with some inspiration to repair, reuse, remake and rethink what you already have.
