What We Do
FunFair Fashion is dedicated to changing our relationship to fashion by the telling of stories that connect us to our clothes. For centuries clothing held a similar value to jewellery. Clothing was cherished, handed down generations and repaired when damaged and repurposed when beyond repair. Through storytelling we can reclaim the relationship we have lost in much of the Western world, through overconsumption and commodification of clothing.
UPCYCLING

Upcycling is the making of entirely new garments out of second hand clothing.
Items at the end of their life cycle can be made into new wearable, lovable pieces.
Upcycling an item you have owned and loved, or upcycling an item belonging to someone you love, creates a story. My hands add to that story, creating a unique piece with a value special to you.
Made to Measure
Clothing made to measure is designed and made for you specifically, with your help. You have an idea and I help bring it to life.
You may want a special item. You may find regular brands do not produce for your body type. Or you may simply want more control over what you wear.
