RETHINK what fashion can be.
Upcycled Designs Made to Last:
Kristen McCoy (AKA the Upcycler) believes in locally designed and sewn products that are made to last. Shop Kristen’s designs online, OR email to schedule a shopping appointment at the Studio in South Minneapolis (3508 Snelling Ave, in the warehouse attached to Audrey Rose Vintage).
All designs are harvested from damaged garments from the community and secondhand/deadstock fabrics, and EVERYTHING is sewn ethically in Minnesota.
Have damaged jeans, t-shirts, or sweatshirts you want to donate from upcycling? Email info@rethinktailoring.com to organize a dropoff!
Learn from Kristen:
Kristen is taking the leap, focusing on her upcycled designs and stepping away from tailoring for clients. However, a huge passion for Kristen is teaching, and she is continuing training others how to tailor, upcycle, mend their wardrobes through Private Lessons. If you would like to learn from Kristen, find the current classes available here or email info@rethinktailoring.com about private lessons!
One of her favorite private lessons is the 1 hour Meet Your Machine Class, where Kristen helps students learn the basics on their machine, BUT more importantly get past the fear of a new tool.
