the fast fashion industry is truly terrifying- here a just a few factoids that barely scratch the surface on the ways this industry is failing.

It’s not all darkness though my friends, there are many small ways you can make a difference; buy secondhand, repair, alter & upcycle your clothes, invest in pieces from local designers that will stay in your wardrobe for life. We are here to help you to help the planet!! 🌏🌎🌍 **kfastfashion

✨Cheeky friendship appreciation post✨ Thanks to all the humans that keep the wheels turning, all the shoppe friends new and old, who trust in our creativity and support us in this crazy shoppe life. Thanks to the new northcote neighbours for the warm welcome, and here’s to meeting more shoppe friends along the way. I truly get a kick out of sharing this space and having a yarn (get it?) about all sewing nerd things and northcote goss 🙊 But most of all THANKS TO THE LEGENDS IN THIS PIC!!

🙌THIS!! This friends is what’s it’s all about! The gorgeous Emma had a couple of super sentimental PJ pants that had travelled with her across continents and decades- well love, well patched but sadly relegated to house pants. With her trust, we came up with a new life for her pants, combining and reinforcing the fabrics, we created a custom fit 1/1 pair of tailored pants. Once again ready to travel the world and accompany her on her many adventures. Swipe for before’s 💫👖

It’s nearly Friyay… Getting through my friends! Still booking, come and see us for all you repairs, remakes and wardrobe fixes 🪡🧵 here is a cute little patch we made over a naughty little ironing accident! 🌸🌼
