♻️Sustainable Shops: Closet Sale Conversations | Part Two ✨

I stopped by the Closet Sale @silvanaharlem, hosted by @trudysthrift and powered by @sewandreapstudio to speak with vendors and creatives building community through style, reuse, and independent business.

Events like this remind us that choosing vintage, secondhand, and small businesses keeps fashion circular, extends the life of garments, and creates more thoughtful ways to consume.

Just as important, spaces like this create connection. They bring people together through creativity, conversation, and community.

Let’s hear from @_parelstudios @bigpsthrift @acrylica._

#SlowFashionSpotlight 🌸🪡
The beauty of collaboration is real.

This piece started as a donated garment for the shop — then it was purchased, reimagined, and transformed through the creative hands of @clubbum and @kallmeketch 🪡

Club Bum’s signature flower appliqué was applied to custom snaps, paired with hand-chain embroidery by Ketch . A new one-of-a-kind piece was born.

We think Club Bum should wear this every day. What do you think?
