About Us
EcoDhaga is India's first closed-loop fashion brand that focuses on giving a new life to fashion waste created by consumers. Not only do we thrift, but we also recycle, donate, and upcycle fabric we receive from individuals. When you shop with us, you're saving the planet, one outfit at a time!
Our Story
EcoDhaga took roots in 2020 when we decided to tackle the fashion waste problem one garment at a time.
What started as a “30 days no-shop challenge” between friends, grew into a discussion about minimalism and thrifting. When we pulled on this thread, it unravelled the shocking reality of mass manufacturing, consequences of consumption and obscene volumes of apparel waste, globally.
With EcoDhaga we have created a reliable loop where individual fashion waste which has potential, any potential, is salvaged and redirected away from the landfills. You can find preloved and preowned clothes in excellent condition at our thrift store which is affordable, sustainable and chic!
Our thrift store carries a range of pre-owned and pre-loved fashion wear from brands such as Soch, BIBA, Global Desi, Rohit Bal, AND, Marks & Spencers, Sisley, Forever 21, Uniqlo, H&M, Zara, and so much more. Hunt for vintage and custom-tailored pieces to add a dash of personality to your wardrobe!
We aim to elongate the lifespan of wearables in India by thrifting, upcycling, donating and recycling.
