Vintage, recycling and bespoke-re-purposed.

Please get in contact via the button at the top of the page if you would like to talk about getting a bespoke-re-purposed gown or outfit made, or if you would like to find out more about my available eco-friendly garments.

Whether you have a sentimental vintage piece of fabric that you would like making into a jacket, a wedding dress that needs re-purposing or would like an eco-friendly gown, I would love to help! As a seamstress I am aware of how much fabric is wasted in the fashion industry. I always make a concerted effort to minimise my own fabric waste by cutting economically and re-purposing or recycling fabric scraps into other items where ever possible. I also regularly donate offcuts to craft organisations, schools and charities.

As well as offering fully bespoke services using ‘new’ fabrics (including eco-friendly options), I enjoy hunting around vintage fairs and online auctions to find vintage embroideries, table linens, antique lace, dead-stock fabrics and other treasures that I can incorporate into my pieces. By creating these ‘bespoke re-purposed’ pieces I can save fabrics that would otherwise go to landfill whilst creating unique garments and items.
