Today’s episode is SO special because it combines EVERYTHING I’m passionate about…..strong female entrepreneurs, sustainability, following your purpose and supporting small businesses!
Our guest today, Chandan Allen was born in India, and was already introduced to a rich heritage of textiles, hand-made crafts, spirituality, yoga and vegetarianism at a very young age.
She later moved to London and studied fashion at Central Saint Martins, UK and honed her skills learning the art of European fashion. Chandan launched her label in 2009 with her first Mélange store in Cape Town, South Africa.
Chandan’s belief in quality and attention to detail, led to establishing her own manufacturing in India, where each design gets its form and shape. A team of artisans and craftsman turn each design into a masterpiece keeping in mind attention to detail, quality and hand feel that differentiates the brands from its contemporaries.
Chandan has marked her 10th Anniversary of her business with the launch of her first flagship store “Melange” at Stanford Shopping Center, Palo Alto.
Being a mother of three children, a globe traveler and a happy Californian resident, Chandan is fierce in her values and beliefs! She supports ethical fashion, philanthropy, and gives back to the community, a happy vegetarian who supports PETA passionately.
