Annika Sanders and Kerry Seager made clothes for themselves to wear out to clubs in the early 90’s during their late teens. After extensive international travel and countless compliments on their clothing a business was executed. Junky styling was the perfect tag to attach to their unique style of clothing. Charity shops and jumble sales were the chosen source of second hand traditional suits to deconstruct and then redesign into twisted tailored garments.

Now 11 years later, with their well-established shop in Brick Lane – London – & in-house production site just down the road, nothing is holding this company back. Anni and Kerry are still best friends and the same multi-talented crew are putting out new clothing ranges in every direction

Here few photos of the new amazing “Timeless, Deconstructed & Re-Cut” Collection Now in Store: re-using shirts, suits, jackets & sleeves to create a new unique style for wonam & man.

All vintage, any vintage. Most of my materials are from previous garments. I cut, hand paint, dye, bead and otherwise *mangle* to get what I want. Because of this everything is strictly speaking ONE-OF- KIND (OOAK)” says Delight Worthyn, the woman self taught artist, seamstress and milliner.

She creates lots of original and unique Wearable Pieces of Art but I’m crazy for her amazing hats:

Dheadpiece-sneakpeek2

“I am excited about a new technique for making headpieces (or whatever I end up calling them). All recycled fabrics. Mostly hand painted T shirts with some antique lace.”

Dstripes-lookbook

…finally Delight Worthyn says “Believe it or not, all the silk in this headpiece is from previous garments. Even the birdcage veil is vintage, coffee brown and difficult to come by. Very limited supply. The flowers are all handmade and painted with fabric dyes to add depth. The flower centers are beaded by hand” … “Ok …I am not going to lie, there is quite a bit of labor here but results speak for themselves.”

Don’t lose any second: have a look at Delight Worthyn’s blog and enjoy!
