THE STORY OF LUCKYUSCHI CLOTHING
LuckyUschi is a women run business built on 20 years of experience in Varanasi, India. Our business model allows women to engage their work in an empowering path of earning independent income and building an individual repertoire where they are responsible for their crafts, with the capacity to engage with more than one manufacturer at a time.
Providing women with financial independence, bringing them together in a safe space where they can connect authentically, and share their concerns and progress are fundamental aspects to our practicing work model.
Our garments are crafted using locally produced textiles, or mass production remnants. Recently we started designing our own Bandhani, hand dyed fabric, which is produced in partnership with a community of local Muslim women. Our goal is always to expand the reach of women's work, and bring joy and partnership into all that we do.
We hope you will enjoy and cherish our creations, and we thank our patrons for their support. Loving hands have touched each item on its way to YOU!
If you know of anyone that may be interested in working with us, we look forward to hearing from you!

WHO IS USCHI?
Uschi's life transitioned to India in 2008, and she has been based in Varanasi ever since. Establishing a women's empowerment unit in the villages outside of Varanasi, she learned the customs and language of Varanasi so she could engage on a level very unique for a foreigner. Coming from the community of Ojai, California, USA, where she taught Yoga and coordinated Yoga events, she grew into wanting to share her passion for India with friends and an extended community. Inspired by her many years of studying the classical texts of Hinduism and Yoga with her teachers Dr. Ravi Ravindra, Kira Sloane, Dr Uma Goswami, Erich Schiffman, Dr. Shravana Barataky-Varma, and others, Uschi's discourse throughout the LuckyLalita journeys inspire guests to feel the teachings of India at a heart level. 20 years of working in the Yoga community have afforded Uschi the unique capacity to plan LuckyLalita journeys for the multi-faceted needs of yoga studios & teachers from all over the world.
