Iām Rosie.
Very pleased to meet you
I am a slow and upcycled fashion designer, maker and educator with an eye for the whimsical and a genuine passion for clothing and textiles that are kinder, slower, and encourage relentless personal expression.
While in my second year of my BA of Fashion and Sustainability, we were tasked with upcycling a business shirt to reach a new audience and add value to a pre-existing textile. I began to sketch and play and plan and I simply could not stop. I began to rummage feverishly through my local op shops, searching for the very best (and thouroughly mediocre) business shirts.
Since then I have sold my yummy little pieces at design markets in Melbourne and Canberra, participated in pop up events at Melbourne Fashion Week and met a whole bunch of lovely cuties along the way.
