Liz Hartman is the Founder of Swiatlo, a slow fashion brand crafted from Indian artisan textiles & repurposed materials. Liz earned her BFA in Fashion at Parsons in New York and worked as a pattern-maker, sample sewer, and technical designer at a variety of established brands including Kenneth Cole and Ralph Lauren's Club Monaco. 

Liz traveled to Ahmedabad in 2016 seeking deeper meaning in clothes-making and fell in love with the acts of devotion and respect for ecology intrinsic to the making of Indian craft textiles. After starting Swiatlo, Liz settled in India to work closely with the amazing tailors, printers, and NGOs who breathe life into her work.
