We are so proud and excited to collaborate with Housing Works, a non-profit that uses secondhand vintage stores to combat AIDS and homelessness in New York City, for National Thrift Day 2024! Housing Works sent us 100 pieces to upcycle. We gave them to a handful of our favorite artists so they could design them according to their personal aesthetics. We also upcycled a few ourselves with simple additions such as belts and patches—all according to current trends—to demonstrate what you can do to upcycle your own clothing.
Over the next couple weeks, we will be highlighting our collection with Housing Works and spotlighting the brilliant artists who reimagined these pieces! Keep a lookout on our social media (@salvagerenaissance on all platforms) and check out the collection at eshop.housingworks.org/collections/salvage-renaissance-collection.
