Denim!
This week’s fragments are centered around denim, not just because everyone seems to be watching Daisy Jones & The Six at the moment! For up-cyclers and vintage lovers, this is a dream trend because so much of what’s on the catwalks is either styled to look as if it’s up-cycled or it's vintage inspired, for fashion creators it’s a win win!
