This look is part of a collection inspired by the Oceanpunk and Steampunk aesthetics. Developed using the upcycling technique, it transforms discarded denim garments into a new design through the deconstruction and reconstruction of fabric panels. Representing the "Disaster, Tragedy, and Catastrophe" family, the piece reflects the impacts of overconsumption and environmental degradation while proposing a new perspective on sustainability, creativity, and innovation in fashion.

"From the throne to the streets, from the past to the future." It embodies a vision of Contemporary Royalty, featuring a majestic silhouette, imposing detachable layers, and corsetry that evokes nobility. It reflects the memory of a lineage reborn through everyday textiles, transformed and elevated into haute couture. For this design, 20 damaged pairs of jeans destined for disposal were upcycled and given a new life, turning waste into a statement of creativity and sustainability. ♻️✨

This outfit I made for the 2025 Emerging Designers Runway with Denver Fashion Week. I made this outfit with scrap fabric and second hand clothing. I made this piece to celebrate thrifting and reusing! “We already have enough clothing on this planet to clothe the next 6 generations!” - British Fashion Council

Needle and wet felted sheep picture for cushion cover. Using scraps, donated wool and thread. Embroidery, appliqué used as well.
So Glow Up Edit = vintage jeans + jackets + shirts + remnants + preloved bedsheets + artistry + circular slay! We met an amazing upcycler, Xib, the guy behind Vintage Tuklasan, at the Podium Mall in the Philippines. Tuklasan is a Tagalog word that means to discover.
We met Erv Saguiped, founder of Vintage Junkie Manila and Karma Collective Manila. A thrifter since 2004, he created this Earth Approved Hoodie using vintage tees, discarded fabrics, towel scraps, and torn sweaters, powered by pure creativity. His one of a kind pieces are favorites of Filipino rappers and singers on stage and in music videos. Find his work at Season Pass 63, Maginhawa Street, QC, Philippines.
