????About My Channel????
I am Samita, a sustainable fashion designer and an academic. I work closely with eco textiles and artisan crafts.

I am an alumnus of the National Institute of Fashion Technology, New Delhi, India. I have a Master's degree in Fashion Design with honors from the Auckland University of Technology

For my Master's research project, I worked closely with Tongan Tapa cloth painters. I have worked with buying and fashion houses in the United States of America, Europe, Australasia, and the Middle East. I have dressed models, beauty queens, and film stars. I have been covered widely by print and visual media in Australia, New Zealand, Dubai, and India. I lecture at international conferences and write articles on fashion and textiles in Australia, New Zealand, and India. I was a finalist at the Style Pasifika Fashion Awards in Auckland for two successive years. For a decade, I was the Coordinator of Major Studies (Fashion and Costume Design) at the Academy of Design Australia (AoDA), Port Melbourne.

I felt there was a need for fashion to reinvent itself. Fast fashion, a polluting, wasteful, and unethical industry needed to be replaced with a process that addressed sustainability, ethics, and handmade. I started Deidaaecogifts online. As the name suggests, Deidaaecogiftsonline sells unique gifts that are eco, ethically made, and handcrafted. My label Deidaa was one of the four Australian fashion businesses selected to showcase at World Boutique, Hong Kong.

I was a finalist in the Sustainability Champion of the Year category at the National Retail Awards, Australia, and in the Sustainability category at the Ausmumpreneur Awards in 2021. I was a finalist in three categories of the Ausmumpreneuer Awards - Fashion, Sustainability, and Multicultural Business Excellence. I won the silver trophy in the sustainability category. I was a finalist in the Women of the Year Awards, organised by Kingston City Council in 2022 and 2023 and a finalist at the Sustainable Business Awards 2023, at Kingston City Council, Melbourne, Australia
