DIY fashionista - Geneva Vanderzeil

DIY Fashionista allows you to re-create the most coveted looks and catwalk trends yourself by doing projects that are professional-looking, inexpensive to make and reuse items you already have or can easily source from markets and secondhand stores. With 40 projects ranging from accessories such as jewellery, shoes and handbags to bigger projects for dresses, skirts, trousers and tops, the book covers a range of treatments, such as customizing, beginner sewing techniques and jewellery-making.

Along with How to DIY introduction, there's advice on thrift shopping and collecting materials, as well as information on updating your wardrobe. A beautifully illustrated publication with a fashion-forward feel, the book makes sewing and customizing your clothes fun and easy.
