      Sustainable Headwear Made from Upcycled Saris

      The I was a Sari headwear collection brings together comfort, function, and expressive design through thoughtfully crafted pieces made from upcycled sari fabrics. Designed for everyday wear, this selection includes fabric headbands, turban-style wraps, scrunchies, and lightweight hair clips—each one handcrafted to add colour and character without excess.

      Soft, versatile, and easy to wear, these headwear pieces are made to fit naturally into daily routines as well as special moments, offering a conscious alternative to mass-produced accessories.

      Ethical Headwear Handcrafted in India

      All I was a Sari headwear is handmade in Mumbai by women artisans using pre-loved sari textiles. By working exclusively with existing fabrics, the brand supports ethical craftsmanship, fair livelihoods, and a circular approach to fashion that values reuse over waste.

      Comfortable Headwear for Everyday Use

      Designed with wearability in mind, these pieces feature soft fabrics, flexible construction, and lightweight finishes. They are made to sit comfortably without pulling or pressure, making them suitable for long days, work settings, travel, and relaxed moments.

      Versatile Headwear: Headbands, Turbans and More

      From elasticated headbands and knotted styles to turban wraps, scrunchies, and clips, the collection is designed to adapt to different needs. Whether worn to keep hair in place, add a subtle accent to an outfit, or complete a look effortlessly, each piece balances practicality with individuality.

      One-of-a-Kind Headwear with Unique Prints

      Every headwear piece reflects the sari it comes from. Natural variations in colour, pattern, and texture ensure that no two items are ever the same, making each one personal and distinctive.

      Circular Design Rooted in Craftsmanship

      Each piece begins with a textile that already exists. Through upcycling and skilled handwork, I was a Sari transforms discarded sari fabrics into reusable headwear, proving that small, thoughtful objects can have a meaningful impact.
