LUREaLURE

LUREaLURE is upcycling fabric for sustainable fashion

Announcement    Welcome! I am glad you made it to the shop, come in and have a look around.

Everything you see is made of recycled material. Fashion can be more sustainable than it is right now; by using material longer or once again we take a step in the right direction.
Many drops make an ocean..............

Let me tell you a little about sizing of the skirts and how they come together.
Sizing is not a standard thing, quite the opposite I would say.
In Holland I am a Medium size (EU 38 but sometimes 40-42) but in Italy an XL!

I mention (Extra) Small, Medium and Large as indication but please read the description underneath the pictures and compare the exact size of the skirt with something similar in your closet.

You can wear A-line skirts high waisted but also lower on the hip, just what you like.
The hip width depends on how high waisted you wear your skirt and can be measured at 18-22 cm (or 7"-9") below the waist.
When you measure your own skirt; lay them flat and measure from side to side. Then double the number for circumference.

Of course I can also make a skirt to your specific wish and size.
Please send a mail to start the process.

I buy a lot of vintage fabrics as coupons or in limited amounts of yardage.
I love old tablecloths, tea towels and everything that is embroidered.
I visit my local thrift shops a lot and am thrilled with what I find. Most of the things are not used up and can certainly be re-used.
Everything is laundered and checked upon arrival in my studio.
And then the party begins, I mix and match, throw in a little embroidery and shake it all up, et voila; a new LUREaLURE skirt is born!

Quirky stuff for cool ladies

Shop members

  • Saskia de Zee

    Eigenaar, Maker, Ontwerper, Fotograaf, Re User

    I used to be a costume and set designer for theatre. Recently I am more into upcycling, recycling, and teaching. Fashion can be so much more durable! I love to make quirky stuff and have a weak spot for embroidery and vintage fabrics.

    Tina is my right hand! She sews with great enthusiasm and is extremely precise. Just how I like it. An exotic mix with an Italian father and a Danish mother, married to a Dutch guy and living in the Netherlands.
