FAQs
How does it work?
I value quality in the items I use to create, so it starts by finding those treasures! My favorite places to hunt for these are at thrift stores, vintage shops, and thrift outlet stores (aka bins!). I then bring the piece to my studio, where I get creative! I feel the piece and look at fabrics I’m currently obsessing over, and an idea comes to life. I hand-make each and every pattern and design I use, making each piece something you won’t find anywhere else! After piecing together many different fabrics and textures, voilá! Your wearable art piece is ready to rock in the wild.
Where do the materials come from?
Not only are all my clothing pieces pre-loved and upcycled, but so is my fabric! I am always searching for crazy patterns and textures while I am thrifting or digging in the bins. You can ensure that every piece of fabric used in your piece will be something that was saved from the landfill and given new life.
What if my piece has a flaw or tear?
Sometimes, handmade art is delicate. Maybe you played too hard or accidentally washed your piece without following my care instructions, and the fabric didn’t like that, no worries! I offer free repairs — forever! It doesn’t matter if your piece is 1 month or 3 years old, I will always fix rips and tears as they happen.
How do I place a custom order?
I love custom orders! To place a custom order, find this option within the ‘Shop’ page. At checkout, there will be a custom order form for you to tell me what you are looking for. After placing your $100 deposit. I will reach out to confirm all order details. Custom orders take 6-10 weeks.
Can you use apparel that I already own?
Absolutely! To do this, find the custom order option on my ‘Shop’ page and choose the ‘Use my own” option. Then you will fil out the rest of the custom form to let me know what you are looking for.. If you are local, you can drop this item off at my studio. If you are not, please watch for an email from me with shipping information.
How do I care for my Red Hat piece?
Each Red Hat clothing item is made from many different fabrics. To ensure a long lifetime for your piece, I recommend hand washing and air drying. If machine care is your only option, please turn your piece inside out and wash it on a cold, delicate cycle.
