The Refashioners 2017 – Elena

15th September 2017

There’s a little surprise with today’s contribution from Elena. This cute kimono style jacket is supremely wearable …The Refashioners 2017 - Elena

But wait! What’s that peeking out from underneath?The Refashioners 2017 - ElenaThe Refashioners 2017 - Elena

Why it’s a cami made from the original lining of the suit that’s what!

Re using the lining as a lining is a no brainer. But reusing the lining to create a completely new garment? That’s a “why didn’t I think of that?” kinda moment!  Head over to Elena’s blog for the full lowdown!

Stay tuned. We have a whole month of refashioning inspiration coming your way courtesy of a phenomenal line up of stitchers.

If you fancy getting your refashion on, but are in two minds about whether to enter this year’s community challenge;

  • Check out our pinterest board for inspiration
  • Check out the amazing prize package (yes you could win all that!)
  • Go grab a suit and dive in!

The Refashioners 2016 - Huge Prize Package

The Refashioners 2017 - Prize Package

Man’s suit. Ladies suit. Doesn’t matter.  Interpret how you see fit. If you’re breathing new life into a suit that would otherwise go unworn or be thrown away, THAT’S what counts.

BUT, if you want to be in with a chance of winning one of these amazing prize packages you’ll need to SHARE that refashion with us in one of the following ways:

  • On Instagram: Share a pic using the hashtags #therefashioners2017  and #suitsyou
  • On Facebook: There is a community board here where you can post your makes (You will need to request an invite to join)

Only entries shared via the above 2 methods will be entered into the competition. Closing date for entries is 31st October 2017 Midnight GMT.

Good luck!!! Get refashioning.

Oh and by the way…The Refashioners is going on the road this November!! If you fancy attending our very first “in person” workshop in London on 4th November….full deets here!!
