A zero-dividend company, we invest all our profits back into transforming the lives of our artisans. We want more businesses to buzz with kindness. Are you in? Through Gucci Equilibrium, a platform to promote the brands sustainable and ethical goals, Gucci has supported I was a Sari in a number of ways, including extending its special embroidery training program to our female artisans.
