Condom Couture Studio Tour with The Upcycler

RETHINK owner, Kristen McCoy (AKA the Upcycler), is a fashion activist: a textile artist, repair expert, professional tailor, AND clothing designer on a mission to prove that the worn or damaged garments we throw away can be reborn. Kristen makes wearable upcycled art out of what others have deemed to be garbage.
