McGee Suit

This funky suit was once an old 1980s suit with sleeves. The buttons were redone with intricate embroidery. The crochet knitted patterns made of flax-wool blend were then sewn onto the pants. A Christine Kim illustration added a personal touch to the outfit.

 

Allon Outfit

Crochet knitted cutouts made of flax-wool blend were added to this discarded 1990s suit.

 

Cropped Pants

These pleated 90s pants were cropped and re-embroidered with several crochet knitted patterns. The shirt was dyed and silk-screened with an illustration by Christine Kim.

 

Neck Scarf & Demin Pants

This cashmere-wool blend scarf was turned into a neck scarf. The forest green 90's suit pants were cut off at the hemline and re-embroidered with demin patches. The tie belt was created using fabric from the same demin pair.

 

Mixed Suit with Hood

Patches from an old jeans pair were sewn with wool-blend yams to this 90s pair of rayon stretch jersey pants.

 

Refreshed Tie & Folded Draping Pants

This old vintage tie was re-embroidered with round crochet knitted circular patterns which were handmade with flax-wool blend. The rayon stretch jersey pants were also tailored by folding in the fabric - which helped accentuate its casual look.
