KH House of Khaddar welcomes NYC fashion sustainability bill

The recently unveiled Fashion Sustainability bill in New York is expected to be a game-changer in the global fashion industry. In times where fashion labels continually cause environmental damage, this bill, if passed will effectively hold the biggest brands in fashion to account for their role in climate change. Actor-politician Kamal Haasan’s recently launched brand 'KH House of Khaddar' in collaboration with designer Amritha Ram, welcomed this bill. 

In a statement shared on Instagram, the company said:
