HOUSTON – Clothing can be so expensive. Especially when kids outgrow them so quickly, or fashion goes out of style.

That’s why we have Hannah M. Le, founder of RE.STATEMENT in the studio, teaching us how to upcycle, be eco-friendly, and save on clothes.

What is RE.STATEMENT?

It is an online marketplace where you can buy bold, one-of-a-kind clothes made from unwanted materials, pieces you can’t find at thrift or retail stores.

What is upcycling?

Upcycling is an option to revamp your wardrobe. You can cut, sew, patch, paint, embroider, or block print on clothing you no longer use.

You can see some examples of upcycled clothes sold by RE.STATEMENT in the pictures below.
