REPURPOSE + REDESIGN

 by Anna Jara

For this project, I was tasked with sourcing thrifted garments and completely reimagining them into new designs. I transformed a pair of pants into a structured crop top, reworking its shape and fabric to create a bold, contemporary piece. A blazer was repurposed as embellishments for a skirt, combining the jacket's tailored aesthetic with scrap fabric to add layers of texture and visual interest. Once the designs were finalized, I was assigned to style and photograph the garments for an editorial shoot. The images captured the creative transformation, highlighting the blend of sustainability, craftsmanship, and innovation in each reworked piece. [Click here to see the final images.]
