Tik Tok has without a doubt become one of my favorite, and most addicting habits since the Covid-19 quarantine hit! Although, I was lowkey using it before that. But getting to see the fashion community growing on the app, which is promoting conversations about sustainability, luxury brands, and fashion history is really cool. Today’s video focuses on creators that have been up cycling thrifted or second hand garments into items that are either cooler or more wearable, which is really cool to see. Of course, with climate change and other issues like this becoming more and more apparent, fashion has been saying it wants to transition away from wasteful practices. Some of this is definitely just greenwashing, but some brands are really finding their voices through these ethical practices. But there’s a whole other side of people, who aren’t solely designers or make a living off of fashion that are creating and up cycling garments into styles that are unique and super cute. I think it’s important to see that you don’t have to be a luxury brand to incorporate sustainable or upcycled pieces into your wardrobe!

Yes, you can absolutely unravel a sweater and use the yarn to knit something else. My mother and I have been doing that for decades - thrift shops are a great place to find jumpers made from great yarn that has a lot of life in it left. But, you're right, it does take time to do all of this by hand. I love it though - my yarn stash mostly consists of upcycled yarn. Happy that more people are doing it nowadays.

@3xitthissid3 2 года назад

what is the point why not just buy yarn from a store? is it cheaper or something? Idk what are the prices for yarn but my immediate assumption is that a garment made from yarn (you know incorporating cost of labour) would be automatically more expensive than the yarn it was initially made from

@Rhymentum 2 года назад

@@3xitthissid3 to answer your 2nd question - yes, it can often be cheaper (especially if you pay for second-hand clothing by the weight, which is a thing at least in my country) than getting new yarn of the same composition, e.g. alpaca or cashmere. But there are other considerations, e.g, you may find a jumper that's got yarn in colours/textures you really enjoy, but the cut/pattern, etc. is not to your taste. Most importantly, it is a way to reuse materials rather than consuming new materials. Which I also do from time to time - mostly from indie dyers/small yarn businesses.

@carinaleonhardt6753 2 года назад

some people probably throw failed sewing projects away, but they're actually great for stuffing pillows or stuffies!

@lazyperfectionist3978 2 года назад

This is why I highly recommend people try making non-apparel items with their unwearable and/or thrifted clothing pieces instead of throwing clothing away, I make a lot of stuffed plushies as a hobby and it adds considerably more density and weight to the items using the recycled fabric scraps compared to using polyfill. They make for excellent gifts as well as useful for making sewing tools like pincushions and sewing kits, hell I made a giant steady desk made almost entirely of fabric and about 4-6 layers of cardboard (that thing ate way more of my fabric scraps then I expected it to, definitely worth doing if you want to get rid of a wardrobe full of unwearable clothing pieces headed to the landfill) etc. like clothing is all well and good, but you're missing out on some really cool decorative/practical items if you just stick exclusively to making clothing with thrifted items

@jonathanpersson1883 2 года назад

@rachel39321 2 года назад

yes, but inevitably as you are learning a new skill, some of your first pieces will be bad. but they are still good practice. they are still "slow fashion" since it is not: "instant gratification of buy and wear once." instead it is: "i am going to spend hours making this and in the process understand better the effort and skill of garment construction."

@stichhalbierer9329 2 года назад

All the girl with mini skirts didn’t take in account, that they need more fabric in the back to cover her bottoms than in the front. Therefore it looks very unbalanced. They have great ideas but how it’s done, they have a lot to learn. I wonder why Luke didn’t recognise it.

@peachydais 2 года назад

sitting in a thrift shop means they weren't going to get worn anyway, especially since so many of the og pieces were hideous and unflattering. i would much rather people upcycle the garments, even if they're only wearing it for a year it means they avoid the fate of 70% of items in thrift shops meet ie landfill. and it extends their lifetime which i'm so for

@thewordshifter 2 года назад

One of my new years resolutions is to get more serious about my sewing skills so I can do exactly this - flip fashion. I think it's not only great for the planet and historically something our great gmas did, but it also presents a fun challenge: how do you make what you want with things cut the way they are, or having that little hole there, or in that fabric? It's a cool game to work around the imperfections.

@Barbar.barbar 2 года назад

My grandmother taught her 5 daughters how to sew and one of my aunts is now a seamstress. It was around me growing up so much that it’s a part of my mind to think about garment construction and potential. You can always buy a simple boring white shirt and add some embroidery or layer fabrics to create YOUR shirt. Clothes and fashion are the best!

@sharpeyedgirl 2 года назад

Same! My mom made a ton of stuff when she was young and even made me most of my clothes as a child! I have so much fabric and things I want to re make but I really need to work on my skills. Sewing can also be so rewarding when you finish something you absolutely love.

Hey Luke thanks for clarifying that calling any robe a "kimono" isn't correct. The way Japanese culture is watered down and oversimplified by ppl who don't care enough to do a couple internet searches is so so frustrating. As a half Japanese viewer of yours, it was a relief to hear you explain this. It's nice having non-Japanese folks pick up the slack and help point out these misunderstandings. You not only have great taste, but also the fashion know-how to back it up.

@montrealderogatory 2 года назад

I will say that there is one thing that makes me nervous about flipping fashion, and that is if you decide to flip something from the 50's or earlier. There are pieces that exist from those eras still, but they are getting more and more rare. If you destroy the original silhouette of the piece, you effectively destroy a piece of fashion history. I'm not saying you cant have fun with vintage pieces, but I also think it is important to be mindful, particularly with older vintage.

@elizabethtangora4353 2 года назад

Agree, sometimes these vids are ruined for me when people flip stuff that would be valuable or useful as is. Like the girl who turns the Carhart boiler suit into a jacket, that hurt me because those suits are so damn expensive. Somebody who works outside could have really used that.

@montrealderogatory 2 года назад

@@elizabethtangora4353 Exactly. You can so some cool stuff like tailoring it, embroidering it, or even fabric painting it to make it more unique. This is still a flip, but it doesn't destroy the garment.

@3xitthissid3 2 года назад

all one has to do is buy a pattern from the 50's and you can sew up these vintages garments by the dozen - or at least for the mainstream everyday vintage garments and simple silhouettes. Edit: preserving patterns would probably be much more important. unless it's the idea of a garment existing for a certain period of time that you're more into.

@montrealderogatory 2 года назад

@@3xitthissid3 I understand that the patterns exist, but fabric isn't made the same way, sewing methods are different. Not to mention that there is a huge difference between original and replica, even if they look identical. It does have to do with the amount of time a garment has existed, and more importantly, how many are left from that same time period. Like there are way more dresses around from the 1980's than there are from the 1940's. Replica is good when it is all you have, but vintage garments are irreplaceable, no matter how good your replica work is Edit: I agree that preserving patterns is important, but existing garments are also important because of the evolution of sewing methods

@morganpavelka4945 2 года назад

I guess I disagree because I think fashion is, ultimately, about getting use out of a garment. I would argue it’s better for someone to alter a garment in a way that allows them to get use and enjoy it then have it sit at the back of someone’s closet, or sit in a landfill somewhere.

I think it is in season 4 that the character played by Alyssa Milano (Phoebe) wore unique and forward fashion flips. It was an eye opening to the possibilities. You gave me more ideas to work with my stuff.

I love that back and white two piece with the cut outs, and the grey skirt, she made shorter kept all the fantabulous aspects of the garment.

vintage fashion is so good but i truly worry abt ppl not deep cleaning them properly

@stalkingpedrochannel 2 года назад

Plss how do I do that. I have a bag of thrifted clothes I want to wear but don't know how to clean. I was considering sending it to the cleaners so they can deal with it but that would be stupid bc it would end up being too expensive

@catserver8577 2 года назад

This decade is getting close to the time when going retro in the traditional sense is going to become close to impossible. I think the 90s are about the cutoff for serviceable thrift store items. As we move forward, the material and quality will not lend itself to upcycling. Even the wool, cashmere and natural fabrics began to be poorly produced and cheaply made. Once the future thrifters get to the nostalgia of this fast fashion era, there will just be strands of thread and a few sequins hanging on one clip of a hanger.

The clothes that are donated, and then not sold will not be donated, they are sold. Nobody receives free clothes from donations, clothing donations are an industry, and they are sold. Charity shops donate a portion of their profit, they still need to pay rent, salaries etc. What often happens is that clothes donated in North America and Europe get shipped to various countries in Africa where they are sorted, then shipped back. What ever is not sold in North America and Europe gets shipped back to Africa and sold. Most of it is broken down fast fashion that then gets burned, releasing toxic fumes, and chemical to the drinking water. Nothing is donated, it is an industry. RU-vid has plenty of documentaries on the matter, you can look up "The Environmental Disaster that is Fuelled by Used Clothes and Fast Fashion" by ABC news "Full circle: The second life of old clothes abroad" France 24 English

DO MORE THRIFT FLIP VIDEO REACTIONS PLS I LOVED THIS

@vampiressrina 2 года назад

I understand why people do thrift flips, but I really do wish they'd do it to clothing people are unlikely to actually want as-is. When they take clothing that'd be perfectly wearable by someone larger, or someone who likes a more vintage silhouette, it just makes me frustrated because I and so many people I know would *love* to have some of the 'before' pieces. *Especially* because larger people already have so much trouble finding things that fit, at shops or second-hand, and it's made worse by skinny girls who buy up all the larger clothing to 'thrift flip' into samey, fast-fashion looking items. For example, that 'mumu'? Could have fit a larger person perfectly well already, or they could have taken it in at some places to make it fit more closely. In the very first video, with that gorgeous longer wool skirt? I know plenty of friends into vintage clothing that would've loved it as-is. I am not against thrift flips! I have *done* thrift flips! I just wish the people doing them, especially the skinny people doing them, would be more considerate.
