Another Look At Clothing Re-created
Ten years ago I wrote a post looking at reclaimed clothing done over by Rowan Knitting Catalog. This time UK Elle Magazine, September 2018 takes up the creative challenge.
The Knit. Sleeves are removed from a Serotonin Vintage sweater. Worn with a Marc & Spencer suit, Gant shirt and Giorgio Armani boots.
The White Shirt. A timeless button-up Gant shirt is updated with iron-on patches. Worn with Rave Review plaid pants.
The Classic Trench. Cut Marc & Spencer coat’s hem into strips and sew an old silk scarf to the waist. Worn with With Nothing Underneath shirt and Vagabond shoes.
The Well-Loved Jeans. Customized jeans (two pairs cut and stitched to third pair). Worn with Harrods t-shirt and Jessie Western boots.
