Deconstruct Reconstruct T-shirts
|
Product Description
Fashion dictates that we express ourselves anew every season and buy into disposable, cheap, factory-produced clothing. There's a new younger generation that is revamping and re-making what they already have - continuing the trend that vintage is vogue. Now the 'cheap and chic brigades' can make their own using Junky Styling techniques. Techniques include deconstructing by cutting and reconstructing using sewing, applique, painting and stenciling, mixing with other fabrics, embroidery, gluing and pinning. The projects include slash neck t-shirt, applique decoration, stencil spray paint effects, button cluster decorations, puff sleeve t-shirts, knotted sleeve t-shirts, slashed spine t-shirt, raw cut halter top, adjustable halter top with knotted back, backless tank t, mini skirt with knotted waist, skirt with pocket detail, skirt with back bustle, t-shirt dress with sleeves, t-shirt vest dress, summer vest with knotted shoulders, summer vest with plaited details, and t-shirt bag.

About the Author
London-based duo of Annika Sanders and Kerry Seager, known as "Junky Styling" have translated their eco-consciousness into chic, one-off or limited edition designs for men and women. Their boutique and design base is in Brick Lane home of up and coming designers, photographers and artists and centre of the old rag trade area of East London. "If you want to have the look of a famous international designer at the fraction of the price (nothing at Junky is over 70 pounds) then you don't have to wait...to get it." -Time Out London
