About the workshop
Unleash your creativity in our Upcycling workshops!
Each workshop draws on a theme from the La Veste exhibition, teaching creative skills to customize your existing garments. Whether it be adding military epaulettes, decorating with jewels, or even deconstructing your garment, each workshop brings you through the historical inspirations seen in the exhibition, imparts some fashionable skills, and lets you try your hand at making your own sustainable COUTURE!
DECONSTRUCTION: Deconstruct and reconstruct your garments in the style of Comme des Garçons, by learning techniques such as negative space and distressing.
