REMNANT GOODS
Remnant Goods is a collection of one-of-a-kind garments created in my Minneapolis home. Each piece is upcycled from worn and well-loved clothes in an effort to give them a second life. Upcycling may not be the end-all practice for sustainable fashion, but while there is an excessive amount of clothing being thrown away each day, any sort of deterrence helps. I am committed to upcycling in a productive way by not scaling down larger garments. Secondhand plus size fashion is scarce as-is, and does not need to be depleted by "thrift-flippers" looking to make bigger garments fit smaller bodies.
This idea was born in an effort to merge my love of textiles and slow fashion. I began by repurposing fabric waste through weaving and quilting. It has since transformed into this; a series of garments made with love and built to last.
