Thriftflip: I turn rejected ukay-ukay bags into high-fashion masterpieces. Faced with unsellable, wrinkled, and hole-ridden vintage bags, I chose to create art. This streetwear piece is purely hand-sewn, featuring a vibrant, custom-embroidered cat on the back. I endured hours forcing a needle through heavy canvas, leather, and rubber glue just to bring this to life. Even better? The hood and backpack are fully detachable. It’s unique, sustainable, and proof that thrift can become luxury."

Every piece has a past, and this one is ready for a new adventure. Giving curtains and blankets a second life as your new favorite two-piece set. Inspired by countryside lifestyle. I use discarded Curtains, bedsheet blanket and (Red,Yellow and Blue) dresses sourced from a local thrift market( Kantamatu-Accra, Ghana ) Deconstructed and washed them to come up with this masterpiece.

Woven Legacy transforms discarded denim into wearable art. The handwoven sando is made from denim side seams, the mermaid skirt is crafted from reclaimed denim waistbands, and the dramatic cape is assembled from denim patchwork. Every detail gives new life to textile waste, celebrating creativity, craftsmanship, and sustainability while proving that fashion can turn discarded materials into timeless couture.

started with the bottom half of a pair of jeans. cut, reconstructed, and turned into this skirt. reflective stripes, vintage zippers from old projects, aros, lobster hooks - every detail has a past life. no new materials & no waste. just what was already here and made into something worth wearing again.

Used old jeans legs to make a two piece set skirt and shirt was made from scraps for a charity called Denim Day Detroit.

This video shows a purse upcycled from pool inflatables, using a patchwork technique and creating panels for stability. A chunky zipper and chain add contrast and functionality to this purse. The punctured pool inflatable was a spaceship in bright design, an orange swim ring and bubble plastic as stabiliser. The process is collecting, cleaning, making a pattern, cutting. Sewing with PVC is pretty unforgiving as each stitch creates a hole hence all has to be done right from the start!

My work is pure handmade denim upcycling — no machines, just intention, creativity, and soul in every stitch. Each piece is one of a kind, already finding its way across the world, worn by those who choose originality over the ordinary. If you feel the difference, you’re already part of it. Reach out and claim yours — become part of a community that wears stories, not trends.

I’m Ellise, 23, from the Philippines. I created this patchwork outfit with love and patience for my May 2025 graduation pictorial because I couldn’t afford a new outfit. Instead, I made my own using 10-peso thrifted jumpsuits and pieces from my old pre-loved clothes. I enjoy creating from scraps because it sparks my imagination and creativity. Through this piece, I hope to share my craftsmanship, inspire others and raise awareness about fast fashion.
