Brunch & Sew: Reinvent Your Wardrobe for Second hand September

By Reinvntd CIC | Sponsored by GirlDreamer

Fast fashion? Nope, we’re flipping the script this September.

This Secondhand September, Reinvntd CIC invites you to Brunch & Sew: Reinvent Your Wardrobe, a creative, eco-conscious event in Wolverhampton where your old clothes get a brand-new life.

What’s It All About?

We all have those pieces hiding at the back of our wardrobes, clothes that don’t quite fit, items we’ve fallen out of love with, or things we bought and never wore. Instead of letting them go to landfill, why not give them a second chance?

At Brunch & Sew, you’ll bring 1 or 2 pre-loved items and learn simple, creative ways to rework, repair, and restyle them. With the help of our upcycling pros, you’ll walk away with:

✨ A refreshed outfit you’ll be excited to wear.

✨ Practical sewing and styling techniques for future projects.

✨ The satisfaction of making a choice that’s good for both your wardrobe and the planet.

What’s Included?

• All the tools, fabrics + embellishments you’ll need.

• Guided support from friendly, experienced upcycling tutors.

• A breakfast bagel + tea, coffee or a soft drink included.

• A clothing swap table if you fancy switching it up (for a small donation).

Why This Event Matters

💚 For the Planet

The fashion industry is one of the biggest polluters worldwide. By upcycling and swapping clothes, you’re reducing textile waste, keeping clothes in circulation, and saying no to the fast fashion cycle.

💚 For Your Wallet

Instead of buying new, you’ll gain the skills to reinvent what you already own. Future shopping trips might just start in your own wardrobe!

💚 For Your Creativity

This is a chance to experiment, play with fabrics, and make your style 100% unique.

💚 For the Community

You’ll connect with like-minded changemakers, eco-conscious creatives, and local people who care about making a difference. Together, small actions add up to big change.

💚 For Your Wellbeing

Sewing and upcycling can be mindful, stress-relieving, and empowering. Plus you’ll enjoy a delicious breakfast bagel + drink while you create!
