Stitching Stories: A Conversation on Upcycling Fashion

Bethany Mynott takes us on a journey through the transformative world of sustainable fashion, unraveling the art of upcycling and repurposing clothing, and delving into the challenges she encounters. Beyond her creative process, we explore her mission to empower individuals, particularly women, to embrace confidence through sustainable style.

From practical tips for revitalising cherished pieces to fostering a new mindset in caring for clothes, Bethany shares many actionable insights. Her evolution from alterations to creations serves as a compelling narrative, highlighting the profound impact of sustainable fashion on personal empowerment and environmental responsibility.

Guest bio:

I like to say I'm in the business of all things creations - not just alterations. I create unique, one-of-a-kind pieces that are an extension of your true essence and fit your body just as you are... all from what's already hanging in your wardrobe.
