about me, Sar

Clothing has followed me from early thrift-store finds in my teens, through years of working in fashion and design as an adult. I’m most interested in garments with history; those shaped by wear, use, and the possibility of being reworked instead of replaced.

Slow Pokes began in 2023 with a different starting point: the world already has enough. The work begins with garments that might otherwise be overlooked or discarded. Reuse becomes a deliberate design constraint, shifting value away from novelty and toward longevity and intention.

Slow Pokes is a one-person studio focused on reworking existing garments into limited, one-of-a-kind pieces.
