Think Act Vote Refashioned – Vintage at Goodwood

Aug 25, 2010

We had a great time at Vintage at Goodwood. Thank to all of you that took part in our Think Act Vote Refashioned Workshops. We took a team of 5 down there to do the workshops including 2 seamstresses and a photographer. Think Act Vote founder Amisha Ghadiali was doing a talk on the Saturday, so we thought it only right to make a dress for the occasion.

We were given a sample Komodo top by their wholesale agency Foundation, so started to brainstorm on ideas of how we could turn this into a special Think Act Vote Refashioned piece.

The Komodo Top

Alison Lewis and Laura Metcalf got to work on the remake.

The Future That Alice Chooses is one with “NO BIG 4X4’s, Cars that run on leaves and twigs, no normal bins just recycling bins and no smoking except in your own house!”

Thanks to Alison and Laura for thier seamstress skills.
