Vintage-inspired designs handmade with pre-loved fabrics
Hello! Thank you for looking around my shop. :-)
At Giselle Clothing Design, every garment begins with a story - woven from forgotten fabrics and revived through slow, intentional craftsmanship. I specialize in one-of-a-kind, vintage-inspired clothing, handmade from pre-loved and deadstock textiles. No mass production. No repeats. Just soulful fashion with a conscience. My pieces are designed for those who want to stand out, not blend in. Every item is thoughtfully constructed, honoring both the material’s past and its future on your body.
In addition to my ready-to-wear designs, I offer custom sewing, alterations, and upcycling services, giving cherished garments a new life or tailoring them to fit perfectly.
I also share my love of making with downloadable digital sewing patterns, so you can create your own version of a Born Again Vintage piece.
With a background in technical design, I provide custom 2D and 3D digital patternmaking services using tools like CLO3D and Adobe Illustrator. Whether you're a brand or a maker, I can help bring your vision to life with precision and style.
Based in Nanaimo, BC, Giselle Clothing Design is rooted in sustainability, creativity, and individuality.
