Moral of the story with Isha Ahluwalia of Moral Science | Episode 09

Moral of the story with Isha Ahluwalia of Moral Science | Episode 09

Author: Goa.me August 1, 2020 Duration: 47:28

In this episode, we step into the world of Moral Science. A Goa based unisex clothing company led by fashion & costume designer Isha Ahluwalia. Located in Assagao just off the Anjuna / Mapusa Road in a house you can't miss thanks to Moral Science's signature neon yellow signboard, Isha's recently established studio is an absolute treasure trove and encompasses so much more than clothing alone.

As someone with a background in fashion & textiles myself, this is one encounter I was especially excited to explore. A conversation that questions our relationship & understanding of clothing. We discuss the realities of launching a collection in lockdown, the pressures of sustaining your practice while building a business and many of the everyday victories & insecurities that every artist is sure to relate to. And with that, let's get into the show.

As mentioned the Moral Science website is now live! https://www.moralscience.in/

Here you'll find everything from the brands debut collection, to the Moral Science zine & related series of short films. In the meantime, we suggest you check them out on Instagram @moral_science@moralsciencebyisha on Facebook. And if you happen to be in the area, do drop her a DM and pop into the studio yourself. To learn more, you can also check out the following article by Aditia Rao via The Voice of Fashion: Back to the Future With Moral Science.

The sound of the sea is a constant rhythm here, but the real heartbeat of Goa comes from its people. This monthly podcast from the team behind Goa.me moves beyond the postcard imagery to find the stories woven into the fabric of everyday life. Each episode is a quiet exploration, a conversation held on a veranda or a walk through a market, listening to the fishermen, artists, shopkeepers, and families who call this place home. You’ll hear the subtle shifts in tradition, the personal histories behind a beloved recipe, and the quiet challenges that exist alongside the celebrated beauty. Hosted by the creators of Goa's largest online community, the Goa podcast draws from a deep well of connection and curiosity. It’s less about documenting a destination and more about understanding a living culture through the voices that sustain it. The result is an intimate, unfolding portrait-a collection of authentic encounters that together reveal the complex and captivating soul of a region often simplified. Tune in for these regular, thoughtful dispatches from the ground, where every conversation adds another layer to the story.
