Free DIY-Couture book exclusively available to Big Issue readers!
In the days of £8 Primark jeans, making your own clothes has become increasingly rare. But 26-year-old Rosie Martin is turning fast-fashion on its head, launching a series of books which enable absolute beginners to make their own bespoke designs from scratch in around three hours.
Published once a month for the next year, the colourfully illustrated journals form a clever modernisation of the classic old sewing patterns that have fallen out of fashion in an age where over a million tonnes of clothes end up rotting in landfill each year.
