It’s normal to have favourite clothes fading away. The amount of buying new clothes can be so alarming, and pocket tearing, but you can bring life back into your old clothes.
Below we have listed at least five ways to renew your old wear, Here’s how to do it:
Resew your Aso ebi:
Some Aso Ebi are used maybe once after they have been bought. Some Agbadas are lying flat in our wardrobes because we can not use them again or events have passed them by.
But you can bring them out, and resew them into smaller shirts and even shorts. You style them into the latest styles and you are trending again.
Use Dye:
Do you have black shirts or any other colour that is already fading, and picking up another colour due to wear and tears? You can turn them new again by using dye.

Patchwork:
Patching up your old clothes offers two things, it gives them a new style and design, two it also preserves them for another time, until you are finally ready to afford another one.

Lastly, instead of throwing away old clothes, you can give them out. By organising a short giveaway, with friends and family, old clothes can be taken to orphanage homes.
