Are you curious about clothing design, conceptualization, and decorative construction? In this workshop, you’ll learn hand sewing techniques that will then be used to rework and decorate the most commonly worn garment: the button-down shirt. Through this project, you will learn how to design, customize, and make new, unique pieces all using materials found at home. Suggested supplies: a pair of your old jeans (with holes if you have ‘em!), a button-down shirt two sizes too big, scissors and needle/thread.
Alexa Stark is an internationally celebrated designer. Her clothing is a reflection of the complex age we live in, creatively balancing the practical and the spectacle in clothing design. A graduate of Parsons in New York City, Alexa’s designs have been shown and sold in New York, LA, Paris, Tokyo, Seoul, and Portland. Alexa has taught workshops locally at Portland Garment Factory and Oregon College of Art and Craft, and in Italy through The New York Times Student Journeys program.
