REfashion workshop

  • BERNINA SG 38 Jln Pemimpin, #08-03 M38 Building Singapore 577178 Singapore (map)

Give your clothes a second life – and rediscover the joy of wearing them.

Have a piece you love but never wear? Maybe it no longer fits, feels out of date, or needs mending. Instead of letting it sit at the back of your wardrobe, why not turn it into something you’ll actually reach for again?

REfashion is a creative, hands-on workshop where we explore how to breathe new life into garments you already own. Whether through simple tweaks, mending, or full transformations, you’ll walk away with something refreshed, wearable, and truly you.

What to expect:

  • Bring two to four garments you love but don’t wear (not all might be able to be refashioned in 3 to 4hrs.)

  • Guided brainstorming to explore what you do wear and how to refashion the piece to fit your current style

  • Hands-on support in transforming, mending, or reworking the garment

  • A calm, encouraging space to connect, create, and share ideas
