[Excerpt]
“Industrialization (…) enabled the gradual participation of all classes of society in the fashion scene.
However, the dictates of haute couture still dominated…”
Create your own, non-industrialized, fashion style by
swapping, upgrading, repairing and creating your own clothes/furniture/accessories.
We have enough already, there is no need to consume!
January 25th, 14:00-17:30 @ Occii
A new workshop for everybody who feels a kick to make something special out of waste or stuff with which you have a special connection…
Think of small furniture, clothes, utensils, artifacts, stuff you don’t want to throw away but deserves a second life or a total make-over.
We are ready to help you make your concepts come true!
Take from home 3 items max. and use our tools and skills to make something unique.
You can use sewing machines, tools, extensions, decorations, silkscreen printing, paint, give away shop items, and many more things to pimp and transform your favorite stuff into an extraordinary product to take home after or swap at the spot…
Bring your friends and fantasy.
Offered by the swap-partycrew: Aga Flo, Mirna DIY, Michalis Weggeefwinkel, Thekla Ahrens Bookbinder and Eri Kinderpret/ -this is not a kids workshop…- but bigger kids can try.
