Heiter Session: The Art of Repair - a clothing mending workshop with Emelie Svensson

For Heiter Society members (from GBP27/month) or paid Substack subscribers (from GBP7/month) only.

In line with this month’s Fashion Revolution Week, we’re going to host “The Art of Repair”, a clothing mending class with designer Emelie Svensson focussing on sustainability, craftsmanship, and circular fashion.

During the session, you will discover how simple repair techniques can bring new life to old clothes – and how mending is both practical and creative as well as a way to extend the beauty and stories of the garments we love.

Open to all levels — just bring a piece in need of repair and learn how to make it last.
