The English speaking magazine. Making the most out of Vienna and life.

re:pair Festival 2024 is Vienna’s trendiest answer to the faux pas of fast fashion. The Festival promotes fixing over buying, with workshops, swap parties, and experts discussing eco-friendly stuff.

This Saturday, you can try your hand at Sashiko. It’s a Japanese embroidery technique focused on sustainable mending. While it evolved from simple repairs to intricate patterns, this workshop is all about the joy of fixing things yourself, not perfection. Bring your torn jeans and transform them into a super cool statement against fast fashion.

No sewing experience required!
