My loose-fitting, unlined jacket inspired by the Japanese Hanten style—drop shoulder, wide sleeve, and banded front. Using various shades of denim from old jeans is a nod to Japanese Boro garments, carefully repaired and layered for many years. My hope is this jacket lives a long and useful life, being repaired as needed. Accents are Japanese indigo dyed fabric on the band and a salvaged Levi’s label.

This set was created from a thrifted sweater and fabric I had stashed away for years. I used the fabric to add puffed sleeves and matching shorts, then finished the front bodice with leftover trims. Even the original sweater sleeves were saved for another project.

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.

This collection transforms discarded denim garments into new designs through upcycling. Inspired by Oceanpunk and Steampunk aesthetics, it creates a dystopian future shaped by pollution, resource scarcity, and technological advancement to encourage reflection on the consequences of overconsumption and environmental degradation. By transforming textile waste into fashion, the collection invites us to rethink the choices we make today and the impact they may have on the future.
