here's how i apply my skills to make fashion better for everybody:
swap! le spontanee
2023 - present
Swap! Le Spontanee is clothes swap I help organize in my hometown. There are 4 to 6 swapping events a month where people can exchange garments they don't use anymore for new clothes somebody else left. A Swap Party is also an excuse for peole to come together to talk about clothes and build community. Every Swap Party is free of charge and accesssible to anybody.
repair café
2025 - present
ATPiCO is library of things: a place where the community can lend and borrow objects . Every few months they organize a Repair Café: a whole day where people and repairers can meet and fix all sorts of different objects together. During Repair Cafés I mend people's clothes while teaching them what I am doing.
mending workshops
2026
"Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime"
​
In 2026 I decided it was time to share my skills and knowledge with my community and so I organized mending workshops for people of all ages and sewing levels.
clothes customization workshop
2025
During the summer of 2025 I had the opportunity to teach 5 classes on how to mend and customize clothes to teenagers at my local Youth Center. I taught them to embroider, to paint on fabric and to make fabric patches using upcycled fabrics.
