Haute Talk with Sarah Torres
This week, we’re joined by the inspiring Sarah Torres—the heart and soul behind Sew by Sew, a one-woman upcycling movement turning textile waste into creative possibility. With over 20 years of thrifting experience and involvement in the deadstock fashion industry, Sarah has deep roots in sustainable fashion. What’s more, she started out by supporting wholesale clients and now curates sculptural mystery fabric bundles, saving thousands of pounds of fabric from landfills each year .
Listen in as Sarah shares:
- What sparked her transition from working with fast fashion to founding Sew by Sew, and how her values guide every step of the process.
- How she envisions the future of deadstock fashion and what sustainability can mean for independent creators and the broader fashion industry.
