In a viral video, underprivileged children in Lucknow, guided by the NGO Innovation for Change, recreated iconic Sabyasachi designs using donated fabrics and the internet is amazed.
People say that fashion can be more than just glamor; it can be a powerful way for anyone, anywhere, to tell their story. On some days, that might sound like an exaggeration, but we are yet again reminded that creativity can come from anywhere as a recent viral video is filling our hearts with proof of just that. In Lucknow, under the guidance of the local NGO Innovation for Change, children from underprivileged backgrounds recreated the iconic designs of celebrated designer Sabyasachi Mukherjee—only they did it with donated fabrics and a whole lot of ingenuity. These young designers used imagination and resourcefulness, and took the rich colors, and the elegance of Sabyasachi’s work and made it their own. The video of them flaunting their work went viral and we love how the internet is reacting to it.
In the video, you can see these children not only modeling but doing so with the kind of pride that comes from hard work and self-expression. Every piece came to life with their skillful hands, and creativity that refuses to be limited by circumstances. Talking about the outfits, everything looks so elegant, expressive, and undeniably striking, reflecting not just fashion but the spirit of the children who made them.
What’s even more inspiring is that it wasn’t just the designers at work here. The video itself was shot by 15-year-old aspiring filmmakers within the NGO who added their unique perspective to the project. They captured the beauty and confidence of their peers, creating a short reel that everyone loved.
The moment caught the eye of Sabyasachi himself, who shared the video on his Instagram, along with a heart emoji. For these children, it might be a dream come true to see their work recognized by one of the biggest names in fashion. And for all of us watching, it’s a beautiful reminder that creativity, passion, and talent can flourish anywhere, no matter where you come from or what resources you have.
