Wearing secondhand clothes or shopping vintage is seen as hard by many – but maybe they’re wrong. Since reusing clothes is much better than buying new ones, we decided to put ourselves to the test. Reusing clothes from our relatives’ past, clothes they have bought in past years but passed on to us, clothes we bought from vintage stores and created 9 looks.

Jacket: The most interesting piece… This was originally a beige leather dress (stained and ripped) and was restyled by Ayşe Yılmaz using silk fabric and adding ruffles. To close the stains she used navy leaf patches. Looks very professional. We know. If you have something old you want to restyle, email us at mail.ninemagazine@gmail.com to get in touch with her.
