    Slow down and enjoy the ride – that’s the secret of a good life. When the world moves at a breakneck speed and life seems to zoom past in the blink of an eye, the only way to retain sanity and maintain a semblance of balance is by slowing down the pace of life in terms of your day-to-day habits and lifestyle. In fact, our fashion choices ought to adapt to the “go slow” mantra so that what we wear represents our authentic, unapologetic selves. Also, slow fashion encourages designing, producing, and buying garments for Quality, Longevity and Distinctiveness.

    Music of Loom founder always had an affinity towards handicrafts, especially those from Rajasthan. Though a lifestyle photographer, she worked with artists and artisans eventually creating a company called Kaladarshini. However, post marriage and pregnancy, work took a backseat for 3 years. Jyoti further adds “The idea of MOL came when I met a few artisans and weavers while on break. My urge to work with them became stronger.

    However, in the midst of planning and execution, Corona intervened. Finally, I took a leap of faith and launched my company by draping the first product, a cotton saree, myself. I also took the entire lot from artisans and also asked them to work on new designs as they had no income source during Covid.” Thus, the pandemic brought out the fighter in Jyoti. With whole-hearted support from her family, the spirited entrepreneur began her journey.
