Reverse Stitch

Reverse Stitch combines traditional visible mending techniques and experimental pattern cutting to create a range of temporary garments from upcycled textile. The project engages the wearer in the construction of their garment and embraces fluidity in all steps of construction to give new life to the textile without hiding the past. Alongside a selection of patterns, a toolkit was developed to simplify the stitching and construction process to open engagement to a wide range of skill levels.
