A Wonderful Weekend
Creating with my Bestie
Some of you may have seen that I have been “pimping up” men’s jackets and creating wearable art
Well, my best friend Amanda Starr(she’s an amazing style guru – check out her website) and I have decided to take it one step further and we are creating a sustainable fashion label called Red Thread Redux (pronounced re-ducks) – and yes we are getting our ducks in a row and will be launching mid August so stay tuned.
We have a shared passion for thrift store shopping which was the impetus for creating our Sustainable Fashion Label.
Over the last few weeks and last weekend in particular we have been up-cycling thrifted jackets and jewellery for our Label Launch and first drop.
In the meantime, I thought I would deconstruct and recreate a jacket/vest for myself to wear to the opening of Upriver Downriver at Maitland Regional Art Gallery this Friday night 24th July.
Sharing some progress shots… as usual I’m working right up to the wire as there is nothing like some pressure…after all that’s how diamonds are made!
