Button Masala by Anuj Sharma

No machine, no tools, no wastage moto, designer Anuj Sharma has reinvented himself as an educator sharing his signature fashion technique of creating garments using only buttons fastened with nylon rubber bands. All you need is three meters of fabric and reams of patience to learn how something as simple as a cleverly placed button could recalibrate our perception of fashion, from static machine-stitched apparel to dynamic and form shifting garments.

Each workshop starts with a dialogue on the philosophy of design and the relation of clothes to the human body, followed by a presentation and a demonstration.

Anuj has conducted over 600 workshops across the globe, having taught about 25,000 people the Button Masala technique.

Button Masala’s simple grid system can be a solution to fast fashion, encouraging creativity in the customer, reducing wastage, over production and over stocking, bringing down costs of production, thus being truly sustainable.
