S4E05: What is Regenerative Fashion? Inside Oshadi Collective’s Soil-to-Garment Story | Nishanth Chopra

Welcome back to the IKKIVI Podcast — 

In today’s episode, we speak with Nishant, founder of Oshadi Collective, a regenerative fashion initiative based in Tamil Nadu, India. Oshadi is building a new system for fashion that begins with the soil, centering nature, community, and craft in every step.

We talk about the vision behind Oshadi, what it means to go beyond sustainability, and how regeneration allows for healing of land, people, and process. Nishant walks us through what it takes to grow a garment from seed to sew, the practices they use on their farms, and the challenges of working in sync with nature in an industry built for speed. We also explore whether regeneration can scale, and how India’s rich agricultural and textile heritage could shape a more grounded future for fashion.

Whether you're passionate about conscious fashion, climate action, circular economy, or the future of sustainable textiles, this conversation will leave you inspired and informed.
