- About me / About business or organisation:
- I make affordable, fashionable, sometimes sexy, and sometimes quirky clothes made entirely from recycled textiles. I get most of my raw materials from a local textile recycler, and I only use pieces that aren't good enough to be worn or used as they are, basically the rejects that charity shops don't want! I mainly work with more mundane items like old jumpers, sweatshirts, t shirts and shirts, and completely transform them, whilst also using as much of the original functionality of the original garment.

I'm 13 and I want to be you one day! I love your collections especially your Winter '10. I'm big on sustainability and really want to be an ethical fashion designer when I grow up. I love block colours and your outfits have a relaxed quirky sleek vibe that really attracts me. I have no idea how to dressmake or set up my own business, but have a head full of ideas. I really admire you and how you have made such beautiful clothes out of recycled textiles!
