Make Your Own Clothes - DIY
Planning on starting to sew your own clothes? Good idea! As a matter of fact the sales of sewing machines have skyrocketed in the last couple of months. People are getting more and more conscious and aware about the true story behind their clothes and want to change the way they consume fashion, by making it themselves! Writing from experience, nothing feels more cool or powerful than wearing something you created yourself. Although your masterpiece doesn’t come out as “perfect” every time, seams might be uneven or the silhouette turned out weird, that doesn’t matter. What matters is that you made something from scratch and that’s something to be proud of. Also, practice makes perfect!
Getting started can sometimes be tricky, therefore we’ve gathered some of our favorite sewing influencers and some great books to get you started and to find that inspo.
