Get to know us

THE PANTS PROJECT created by Kim Engstrom, Founder, Green Tara Design, originally emerged from her love of travel and fashion and was inspired by the incredibly talented hand block artists in India. What grew from there is a desire to give directly back to the artists themselves and the community at large. From there her vision grew to include a team of dedicated and talented people who strongly believe in making a difference in the world- one project at a time, one pair of wrap pants at a time .

Our mission

At Green Tara Design, we believe in being beautiful inside and out — where compassion, generosity, and respect are woven into every thread. Our sustainable wrap pants and artisan-made designs are crafted by a dedicated team of women tailors who inspire everything we do. Moved by their strength and commitment to their families, we are devoted to ensuring fair wages, safe working conditions, and a manageable workload.

Our vision

We’re more than a fashion label — we’re a global movement for women’s empowerment, mindful living, and ethical craftsmanship. Every purchase supports a triple bottom line philosophy: as Green Tara Design prospers, so do our employees, suppliers, and the communities we serve. Through profit sharing, education, and training, a portion of every sale goes directly back to the artisans who bring our designs to life.

Rooted in sustainability and guided by compassion, Green Tara Design invites you to join us in creating a more peaceful, positive, and equitable future — one handcrafted piece at a time.

We're always looking for talented and passionate people to join our team . Email us for current openings and opportunities
