The Aftermath of Ottawa’s First Clothing Swap + Alteration Event

img_8922

Thanks to *everyone* who volunteered and participated at Spins & Needles Clothing Remix + Remake Party! It was a blast! Ottawa definitely showed their passion for fashion – tons of people showed up to swap, alter, modify and reconstruct clothing, despite the near tornado conditions before the start of the event!

Local designers, including Laura Twiss, gave workshops on how to alter newly swapped clothing.

Models worked the runway wearing remixed new and vintage pieces from local clothing boutique Victoire.

Designers and crafters worked the sewing machine pods provided by Singer img_8921

And Les Aliments Morsel Foods served up some delicious baked goods – including awesome bundt cakes! (which DJ Jason Pelletier sampled happily)
