Good news in reuse
<p>IS there a ghost in our studio (Jo’s attic)? No matter, because we’re all about human spirit anyway - those big gestures by small businesses, small gestures by big names (that become big by association), distant communities bringing upcycling to a global audience. We needed to chat about nice things, and there are plenty of those within the circular and slow fashion movements.</p><p>If you want a good rabbit hole on a gloomy day (or sweltering, depending on your hemisphere), look no further.</p><p>Here’s the gorgeous <a target="_blank" href="https://www.marieclaire.co.uk/fashion/women-who-win-anna-foster-elv-denim">Anna Foster</a>, founder of ELV Denim, better explaining the middle seam trick than Jo managed..</p><p>“Our signature style with the four seams is not only an aesthetic design, but a functional one too. The seams allow for simple alterations (which is unheard of in denim), to achieve the desired fit, and the generous seam allowance – as with all couture tailoring – means that the jean can adapt with the life of the wearer; it can go up in size and down in size.” </p><p>Oh! And we worked out why Jo wrote “still got it” in her notes! No, it wasn’t a declaration of self-love but an Insta account to help her remember this post: </p><p>Introducing <a target="_blank" href="https://www.instagram.com/bone_bwoy/">Bone Bwoy</a> and his incredible garments made from our dumped textile waste on the shores of Accra, Ghana, under the label <a target="_blank" href="https://www.instagram.com/kala_blaq/">Kala Blaq Kintsugi</a>. Check out his <a target="_blank" href="https://www.instagram.com/carryyourfuture.global/">Carry Your Future</a> initiative here. </p><p>We mention <a target="_blank" href="https://www.vogue.com.au/fashion/news/fds-tafe-the-innovators-2026-review/image-gallery/daeb8d7eeafab8bc088bb9683c08feaf?page=1">Tate Boswarva</a>, a recent <a target="_blank" href="https://www.fdsfashiondesignstudio.com.au/">FDS Tafe</a> graduate and <a target="_blank" href="https://www.slogue.com.au/youth-team">Slogue mentor</a> who showed an incredible collection of slow and circular pieces at Australian Fashion Week, and whose process went viral to the tune of 1.8 million views. It’s so labour intensive it’s (hopefully) dupe-proof…</p><p>Keen to check out Ali’s recommendation on <a target="_blank" href="https://thefoldline.com/">online clothing patterns</a>? Or what about Cassey Ho’s Blogilates? Here’s the One Direction <a target="_blank" href="https://youtu.be/rwVzamFR-tg?si=vAQ8hcdOoItSKlqU">What Makes You Bootyful </a><a target="_blank" href="https://youtu.be/rwVzamFR-tg?si=vAQ8hcdOoItSKlqU">workout </a>for all y’all who want to imagine squeezing a penny between your butt cheeks :/ </p><p>As for Ho’s clever retaliation after her skorts were duped by an ultra fast fashion brand, we think all the ‘kits’ are sold out but you can still purchase the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.popflexactive.com/collections/popflex-upcycle-project">pattern</a>, and if you’re an ‘alternative dance mum’ like Jo, it could make for a great community project to save old dance skirts from landfill! </p><p>Here’s the story on the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.goodgoodgood.co/articles/billie-eilish-concert-shirts-merch">Billie Eilish recycled concert Tees</a>… </p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.aeiphoria.com.au/">Watch this space</a> and follow <a target="_blank" href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/anastasia-gazis-34b628298/?skipRedirect=true">Anastasia Gazis</a> for news on textiles recycling. </p><p>And finally, check out Sheridan Mortlock’s brand new <a target="_blank" href="https://open.spotify.com/show/6zq59MTtF5TswbipvjbZDF?si=80e8f7e8eb1b48d0">Fixing Fashion podcast</a> …</p><p>For the moment Jo did the dirty on Ali with an “other”, <a target="_blank" href="https://open.spotify.com/episode/4BJ67Rpu2sFvV7O4Wx5cED?si=45da2224b18e4475">here’s their interview</a>, the first in the series being all about Slogue and Flip Fashion Forever.</p><p>So, until next time… </p> <br/><br/>This is a public episode.

Dunedin, the Devil and the Dopamine of Making
<p>Yes we know, there’s been another accidental hiatus, but we just planned, recorded, edited and published a whole episode in one afternoon, so things are looking up.</p><p>In this episode, we catch up on Ali’s recent embroidery work, including her response to a 19th-century wedding fan for an upcoming exhibition in Dunedin. We talk about fashion as art and fashion you just want to make for the joy of it.</p><p>Jo shares what she’s been learning through Slogue’s Flip Fashion Forever workshops: that fashion becomes more powerful when young people experience it as something they do, not just something they buy.</p><p>We also get into the messy middle of sustainable fashion — why blaming consumers doesn’t work, why “just buy secondhand” is too simple, and why fashion literacy might be one of the missing pieces. What is quality? How do we recognise fabric, fibre, weave and construction? And why does it matter?</p><p>Plus: Devil Wears Prada 2, small businesses closing, sewing as social dopamine, emerging designers, and Ali’s excellent explainer on the difference between silk and satin.</p><p></p> <br/><br/>This is a public episode.
