Produktbeschreibung

A practical guide to buying less and caring more for your clothing

Leah Giblin grew up with the best dress-up collection, spending hours styling and playing with her siblings. She has always loved making clothes and she's also always cared deeply about environmental issues. In an era of fast fashion where far too many clothes are being made and discarded, Leah reinvents the clothing she already owns instead of buying something new.

In How to Keep Your Clothes Forever, learn practical ways to apply this 'dress-up box' philosophy to your own life, so you can buy fewer new clothes, take better care of your old ones, and give well-loved pieces a new lease on life. Whether you're new to sewing or a professional looking to level up, Leah's clear step-by-step projects will help you to fall (back) in love with the clothes you already own, and arm you with the necessary knowledge to make truly sustainable and ethical choices that are not just good for your wallet but the planet too.
