Re-Sew

We create clothing that ages with you by re-sewing it into other garments after it completes its journey.

Re-Sew is a skirt design brand that integrates sewing guidelines as a printed pattern on the skirt as its design language. With its intended function to become another piece of clothing from its birth, the skirt itself is the raw material to make a shirt out of it. This concept targets consumers who want to wear responsible clothing. By choosing this skirt, the customer not only gets to express the willingness to extend the garment's life with the printed pattern, but also personally engages with the production of garments by transforming it into a shirt. It encourages them to personalize their clothing by reconnecting to old traditions and techniques. Customers can either learn to sew and turn the skirt into a new garment by following the patterns or seek local services for the same purpose. The skirt’s sustainable manufacturing process with a simple pattern and traditional techniques encourages clothing production with approaches from circular economy and slow fashion.
