This free tutorial was part of Fibreshed Ireland’s Nothing New 2023 campaign in support of Fashion Revolution week and their 10-point manifesto. Everyone’s invited to join our virtual fashion show on the 28th of April by posting a photo or video of their revamped outfit on social media, using the hashtag #fridayfashionshift!
Fashion designer Laoise Carey presented some quick and easy techniques for turning up the hems on your trousers, skirts, dresses or tops, to give your ill-fitting clothes a new lease of life! Laoise showed both hand-stitching techniques and sewing machine methods that you can try at home.
Find out about future workshops by Laoise on her Instagram and Facebook or check out her latest collection made from vintage and re-purposed textiles on her website.
