One of the latest trends in the now-mushro­o­ming sustainable fa­shion market has been the upcycling of clothes. And with celebrities like Kendall Jenner making a statement with revamped jeans, DIY wardrobe is becoming quite the rage.

The best way to venture into upcycling, if you want to do it yourself, is by starting with an old pair of jeans. Add a pop of colour to it, stitch on small patches or logos, or get digital printing done on them. The easiest thing to do is to stitch a patch on it — you can do this at home. If you want more detailing, opt for traditional embroidery, but in measure — both of which designer Samant Chauhan had recently done while upcycling denim jeans.
