Reconstructed Buttoned Down Off-cut Treatment Bra

This upcycled Bra is crafted from a discarded button-down shirt, reimagined into an intimate, sculptural form. The original button lanes and button loop details are preserved, grounding the piece in its past life while reshaping its purpose.

Across the surface hand embroidered appliqué emerges—wilted flower motifs formed from offcut remnants, each one individually treated and stitched. These fading blooms evoke a quiet tension between vulnerability and beauty, decay and renewal, turning textile waste into something deliberate and intimate.

Fully handmade, no two pieces are identical. Variations in fabric, dye, and stitch mark each bra as a one-off expression of process, memory, and transformation.
