| Mia's loved jeans...first patches were done 1996...newest 2012 |
Alterations and mends are always a question of is the garment well made enough to withstand the deconstruction that is required? When it comes to a pair of loved jeans the answer is almost always YES!!! The exception to the rule is if they are stretch denim there is no hope, they simply have come to the end of their life. But should you come to me with a worn pair of non stretch jeans I will wholeheartedly embark on the resurrection of your pair of faded blue best friend. In the past I have done subtle repairs as well as bold colourful patches to knees, thighs, and butts of some well loved jeans for others as well as myself. My dear friend Mia struts her patched and re-patched jeans with pride on the set of a recent film project,
Ollie and Emma.
