Fragments of Time: A collection made of memory, meaning, and mindful beauty

In the quiet of our studio, we began to gather what remained — soft scraps, floral fragments, forgotten corners of cloth, edges once trimmed and tucked away.
Not waste. Not leftover. But memory. Each piece held a past. A pattern once cherished. A colour that once lit up a collection.
And so, with slow hands and thoughtful eyes, Fragments of Time began to take shape — an ode to what stays with us, and what we choose to hold dear.


A Conscious Gathering of What Remains

At Buna, we’ve always believed that beauty doesn’t begin with something new. It often begins in what’s left behind.
Fragments of Time is born out of a conscious effort to honour the fabrics that remain — offcuts, trims, misprints, and remnants of seasons past.
Each carries a whisper of what once was: a print from a beloved dress, a border from a cherished maxi a faded floral left from a spring long gone.
Rather than discard, we collect. Rather than conceal, we reveal.



The Poetry of Upcycling

In this collection, we don’t just upcycle — we compose.
Each garment is treated like a canvas. Scraps are chosen with emotion and intention, placed with care to create visual poetry.
A patch of polka dots beside a stripe, a faded rose nestled into ivory muslin, a border of pink stitched gently against pale green — each placement is a stanza in a cloth-bound poem.
Together, these pieces form quiet landscapes, imagined gardens, and collages of time and texture.
To upcycle is to reimagine. To place with care is to tell a story. What results is not just a garment — it is a slow painting made of cloth.



A Gentle Aesthetic, Made by Hand

The beauty of Fragments of Time lies not only in what’s seen, but in how it is made.
Every piece is shaped through a meticulous, hand-done process:
- Scraps are hand-sorted by feel, colour, and memory
- Stitch lines follow the shape of the story, not speed
- Each seam, panel, and patch is placed with deliberation and sewn slowly
The result is clothing that breathes softness — a gentle, unhurried aesthetic. An embrace of imperfection. A garment that doesn’t shout, but lingers quietly in your memory.



Details that Breathe

Textiles: Mixed leftover cottons, dotted mul, striped khadi, hand block-printed florals
Techniques: Patchwork, kantha-style hand quilting, hand embroidery, running stitches
Palette: Faded rose, earthy greens, soft ivory, sun-washed beige, dusty lilac
Forms: Flowy dresses, relaxed co-ords, soft jackets, carry-all totes
Feel: Light, wearable, and utterly unrepeatable
Every piece is one-of-a-kind — made in limited quantities, or just once.

For the One Who Finds Beauty in Leftovers

This collection is for those who cherish the imperfect. For those who believe that age deepens beauty, and that memory can be worn. For those who know that clothing can be more than fashion — it can be feeling.
With Fragments of Time, we invite you to wear memory. To wear meaning. To wear what has already lived — and is now ready to begin again.
