New Aesthetic Alert! ✨Craft Core✨

New Aesthetic Alert! ✨Craft Core✨

Playful fashion statement but make it DIY?
Craft Core was born out of creativity, experimentation and the desire to take fashion into your own hands. With a pair of scissors and your imagination, those ‘outdated’ jeans could be turned into a colorful Y2K moment. This aesthetic is quickly taking over Cottage Core, so it’s time to tap into your inner child and get creative!

If you’re looking for new ways to promote sustainability and clothing circularity, Craft Core will be your new fav aesthetic. Not sure where to start? We’ve created a list of our fav Craft Core trends as well as some pieces that could be used in your next DIY project!
