Chopped and screwed: (sometimes called screwed and chopped or slowed and throwed) refers to a technique of remixing hip hop music which developed in the Houston hip hop scene in the 1990s.

Chopped and sewed: (grammatically correct spelling: chopped and sewn, don't get on my case) refers to the deconstruction of thrift/hand-me-down clothing to be used as fabric and reconstructed into an altered or different garment altogether.

While most of these are from my line of handmade clothing, Chop Shop, I also resell vintage clothing.

**All of my Chop Shop originals are once-offs as I make them from repurposed thrift store clothing, and my designs are patterned from my size 10 (modern size 6-8) dress form. I do welcome custom size requests for my designs. If you would like to make a request, I will provide you with a choice of prints from what I have. Convo me with your measurements and choice of design and I will be happy to oblige!


More of my designs can be seen in editorial format over at my blog:

I hope you enjoy my designs and my selection of vintage! Happy shopping!
