High fashion. Low waste.

Second-hand First.

    How It Works

    I find new ways to design interesting items using mostly thrifted materials. Sometimes I reconstruct a vintage garment, sometimes I paint or embroider it, I might use deadstock fabric to make a small batch of garments, or I might use scraps to patchwork a new piece.

    How to Order

    Some shop listings may ask you for a few measurements to ensure the ideal fit. If you don’t see your size, just email me a custom size request with your measurements. If an item is out of stock, add your email address to the waitlist and you’ll be the first to know when it’s in stock.

Hi! I’m Laurs.

So many clothes and materials already exist in the world. I prefer to design using these post-consumer materials to reduce waste and to create small batches and one-of-a-kind pieces. Also, I document these upcycling ideas so you can rework your wardrobe along with me.
