One of the biggest cultural shocks after moving here was the lack of tailors I could reach out to for a quick fix for an undone hem or to tailor an outfit exactly as I envisioned. It seemed quite absurd to have to search endlessly in vain for a tailor just to get a quick fix for off-the-rack clothes that do not fit. Fashion and sustainability go hand in hand, and with our project, we aim to solve both problems while also providing opportunities for our community members, who are skilled seamstresses. Watching my mother and many of my relatives abandon their sewing machines and hone their skills has been heartbreaking.
