About the Project
Dean Designs Apparel is bold clothing with a story. Each piece is handmade from thrifted fabrics, transformed into one-of-a-kind button-down shirts. This project was born from a love of reinvention, taking what already exists and giving it new life. Every shirt is unique, crafted by hand with attention to every detail. Dean Designs is about wearing your confidence and embracing your individuality!
Collection Highlights
The Process
Each piece begins with sourcing thrifted or deadstock fabrics, including cottons, bed sheets, and curtains. These materials are washed and cut into new patterns before being sewn into short-sleeve button-downs. The process emphasizes precision tailoring while embracing the quirks of upcycled textiles, resulting in sustainable, one-of-a-kind, and carefully crafted garments.
