The past few years have been an interesting time for the fashion industry, especially with the conversation around textiles and the pollution they cause gaining more momentum. Call it the pandemic effect of slowing down and having the time to channel your creativity, many homegrown brands emerged mid-pandemic and focused on creating sustainable models.

Among those is Yam, a new-age brand that is delivering timeless wardrobe winners with a twist. Understanding the relevancy of sustainability in today’s fashion, they make garments and accessories consciously and with zero wastage.
