The Reversible Mad Dandy  Jacket

I created The Reversible Mad Dandy Jacket, inspired by Colleen Atwood’s stunning costume design for Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland (2010).

This unique garment is an upcycled 80’s vintage Liz Claiborne linen blazer, reimagined with structure alterations, original embroidery designs, and recycled buttons, blending vintage craftsmanship with a modern, sustainable twist.

The reversible design adds versatility, allowing for multiple styling options while showcasing the artistic and eco-conscious approach behind the piece.
