Ryder comes from a graphic design background, with studies in fine art, pattern making and started sewing as a child. They've been in this industry for six year, repairing and caring for garments. 

Their practice is rooted in slow fashion, vintage restoration & environmental impact which has led to deep passion to work with reused/ reclaimed materials. Ryder comes from the lived experience - where clothing helped them to be seen. Clothing became a form of self-expression.

Ryder Specialises in garment repairs, resize & redesign. And sees every piece of clothing as a chance to add a touch of personality a piece of you. To make you shine.

Ryder believes everyone should be able to wear their favourite pieces, and feel comfortable, confident, empowered & aligned.

Ryder also hosts Free Monthly Groups. Crafty Queers & Repair Circle.
