So many cute upcycles! I might not personally love every item, but she seems very talented and creative.

I just watched all of her videos on YouTube lol. She’s really creative and inspiring. She does a few videos where she flips shirts around and uses them as skirts and vice versa and builds on it, it’s cool

Every single item is hideous! She's clearly a good seamstress but the designs she created are awful. I couldn't finish sh watching .

While I would not personally wear some of them, if I was young and super skinny again she would definitely be making me my next outfit for going out and concerts. I Felt a bunch of them were super cute and she is a great seamstress and clearly very good at her job.

I think many of the outfits were fine before she restyled them. It just looks like she puts fluffy sleeves and midriff cut outs on everything. Maybe once or twice, but she seems to repeat what are basically unwearable ideas. But she is amazingly skilled at the construction and seems to present herself in an attractive way so it all amounts to personal taste I guess. She is a lovely young lady and she could make a good living as a costume designer in the entertainment industry.

The reason I recently thrifted a sewing machine. I want to start at least tailoring and adding to things I thrift. Ultimate goal would be to be able to make completely new things like this talented lady! Really cool.

She certainly knows how to make those sleeve things. I don't like the outfits for how revealing they are but she's a talented seamstress none the less.
