#ScribesAndMakers 9/25. How would you describe your #fashion sense?
I don't follow #trends and I don't let anyone tell me what to wear. It has to be comfortable, made from natural fibres. I mostly buy second-hand and I love #upcycling and #visibleMending.
Sometimes I wear boring grey or leggings, sometimes I get compliments like "how dare you at your age!" Then I dare even more: I do love colours! I love jeans.
A bright green patch with red intuitive stitching covers a hole in a dark blue linen shirt. Why throw clothes away when you can embellish them with visible mending!
A checked blazer in English country style had a worn collar. I revamped it with a traditional, cheerful yellow Provençal print featuring chickens and added patches at the bottom and on the side pocket for a more harmonious look.
A long jeans coat was so boring that I coloured it up with applications of patches and spirals of saree silk.
very colourful jeans with visible mending, inspired by a famous 1960s cover.
