This second upcycle yourself workshop was part of ikikik! (mememe!). During this day, the Andrea Crews Collection gave everyone the opportunity to create their own marvelous outfit out of old vintage clothes.

A mountain of second-hand clothing, work tables, sewing machines, sewing kits, tailor's dummies and lots of haberdashery made sure everyone had enough material to get going. All participants had the choice either make an outfit on their own or let the Andrea Crews Collective help.

Everyone could buy one kilo of vintage clothing for 5 euro and work on their outfits.

The Andrea Crews collective taught the workshops themselves on July 19, 23 and 26. All later dates were led by young fashion designers from Amsterdam, The Hague and Arnhem.

These workshops took place at every Wednesday and Saturday from 12.00 - 18.00 hours at the Mediamatic BANK.
