Description

Reinvent your wardrobe while preserving the planet! Tara warmly welcomes you to her parisian atelier to immerse you in her world of creative and sustainable fashion; you'll have the chance to create your own upcycled jacket! Upon your arrival at her atelier, the designer will introduce you to upcycling and proudly showcase her unique creations. You'll notice fabric cut offs from luxury design houses and jackets carefully selected by the designer from thrift stores, in various sizes, so you can find the perfect piece. You'll then be invited to choose the jacket that will soon become your upcycled masterpiece. The enthusiast will then guide you through three different techniques: patchwork, cut out, and embroidery. You'll have the option to focus on one technique or combine all three, allowing your creativity to flow freely. Then it's your turn to play! Excitement will build within you as you transform an old jacket into a unique and stylish piece. You'll come to realize the importance of giving a second life to forgotten pieces, rather than discarding them, while creating incomparable and durable pieces. At the end of the workshop, you'll leave with your unique upcycled jacket, feeling encouraged to continue exploring upcycling on your own.
