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.

Wool and silk skirts cut into pieces and upcycled into a dress with layers of pieces. Top of dress made from salvaged sweaters with ruffled wool to match bottom of dress. Vintage sequin sweater cut into pieces and added to upper dress.
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.

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.
