Our Processes

 

Why Recréer Stands Apart

At Recréer, we do more than upcycle vintage garments—we transform them through a meticulous, artful process that combines traditional craftsmanship with innovative techniques. Here’s how we’re redefining what it means to wear vintage:

 

1. Curated Global Sourcing

Our journey begins with an eye for perfection. We source premium vintage coats, blazers, and tailored suits from across the globe, selecting only the finest pieces with exceptional fabric quality, structure, and timeless appeal. Each garment is carefully inspected for its potential to be reimagined.

 

2. Advanced Garment Revival Technology

Once the garments arrive in Indonesia, the process of transformation begins. Our team uses advanced cleaning and restoration methods to prepare each piece. This includes ultrasonic fabric cleansing to gently remove impurities without compromising the integrity of the material and fabric reconditioning techniques that restore softness, color depth, and durability.

 

3. Tailored Reinvention by Skilled Artisans

Next, our garments are entrusted to our team of independent tailors—true artists in their field. Using a mix of traditional tailoring and modern garment construction techniques, they reimagine each piece into a new design, often requiring hours of hand-finishing to perfect the details.

This is not just altering clothes; it’s a full-scale reinvention that combines heritage craftsmanship with modern design concepts. Every seam, hemline, and silhouette is reconsidered to fit today’s style while honoring the garment’s history.

 

4. Precision Fit and Modern Functionality

Our designs are crafted for a perfect balance of form and function. To ensure this, we employ 3D pattern-mapping technology during the design stage, allowing us to test fit and proportions digitally before the first cut is made. This ensures that every piece is not only visually stunning but also fits like a dream.

 

5. Ethical and Sustainable Practices

Every step of our process is guided by a commitment to sustainability. We work exclusively with local, independent tailors who are paid fair wages, and we minimize waste by repurposing even the smallest fabric scraps into design accents or linings. By choosing Recréer, you’re supporting a more thoughtful, ethical way of creating fashion.

 

6. Uniquely Yours: One-of-a-Kind Pieces

No two Recréer garments are the same. Each piece carries its own story, its own character, and its own identity. You’re not just buying a garment—you’re owning a wearable work of art that’s as unique as you are.

 

7. Timeless Elegance, Built to Last

Unlike fast fashion, Recréer pieces are crafted to stand the test of time. From the high-quality materials to the masterful tailoring, every aspect of our process ensures longevity. These are garments you’ll cherish for years, not seasons.
