This Thursday we held a workshop on Fashion Hacking, using used clothes to create new and useful things!
We began by talking about the environmental, social, and financial benefits to fashion hacking, and then moved right into hands-on hacking!
For this workshop, we focused on thinking about the anatomy of clothing – the different fabric pieces that make up clothes, and how those pieces can be adjusted and rearrange to create new items. People ended up making bags, shirts, skirts, backpacks, and even wigs!
Thanks to everyone who came out, and if you are interested in our slideshow, handouts, or further fashion hacking resources, they can be found here. If you are interested in attending any of our future events, including more fashion hacking later this summer, those events can be found here.
