Description

Get ready to breathe new life into your wardrobe! Ever looked at your clothes and wished they could be as unique and stylish as you are? Hold onto that thought, as Elise Sinclair of Elise's Sewing Studio is here to help you revamp existing garments into fresh, trendy pieces. From shortening trousers and sleeves to swapping hardware, and more, we discuss the ins and outs of refashioning clothing. Elise even lets us in on her own projects and how she transformed a simple trench coat into a chic, statement piece.

We all know how thrift shops can be a goldmine for some truly one-of-a-kind pieces, but are you considering the quality of fabric, hardware, and fit when you find that diamond in the rough? Elise stresses the importance of these factors, as well as planning ahead for successful refashioning. For those garments that are a bit worse for wear, worry not! Elise has the tricks of the trade to repair moth holes and shorten items with zips inspired by her ambitious project on a men's leather moto jacket that's now a stylish cropped jacket.

 So, what are you waiting for? Join us and apply Elise's tips to your own wardrobe and don't forget to share your refashioning experiences with us!
