Ninety-four year-old Hansiba's embroidery has transformed the lives of her co-workers in Gujarat, India.

Twenty years ago, Hansiba's embroidery skills inspired the setting up of SEWA, the which named its clothing brand after her.

The association became an unlikely success story for women struggling to survive in remote villages, as their work found an international market.

Thousands of lives have been transformed and Hansiba herself has appeared on the catwalk to model the clothes.
