“The ReFashionista” Turns Frumpy Second-Hand Clothes Into Elegant Dresses

 

Designer Jillian Owens is better known online as the ReFashionista, as the young thrifter has made a name for herself by showing others how to repurpose second-hand purchases. Owens’ amazing work proves that high fashion doesn’t require a high income, and while a number of her recreated outfits may require a higher level of skill than most of us have, she notes on her blog that some of these clothes actually required no sewing at all to repurpose.
