Create-Your-Own Garments
Aletheia Apparel has little inventory–items are primarily sewn with customisations once an order is placed. This means less wastage, better quality, and a unique garment every time! Using natural fibres, rescuing textiles, and adapting sizes is foundational for Aletheia Apparel.
Bridal and Dress Alterations
Formalwear, bridal, workwear or everyday clothing, can be brought in or posted to the studio in Selwyn. Aletheia Alterations takes a creative and professional approach to working on garments which need restyling, resizing, or repairing. Consultations and fittings are by appointment only.
One-of-a-kind Garments Made from Rescued Textiles
Whether transforming or recycling garments for extended wearability, ReFashion by Aletheia is committed to a circular fashion model for better stewardship of textile resources. Use of industry offcuts, deadstock fabric, or forgotten fibre treasures provide opportunities for new and unique textile creations.

ReFashion
Utilising rescued textiles, ReFashion by Aletheia transforms scraps, off-cuts, recycled and deadstock fibers into limited edition pieces. Once these pieces are gone–they’re gone!
In a world still churning out trendy throw-away fashion pieces at breakneck speed, the idea of upcycled or refashioned apparel can be an anomaly.
But it is a continuously growing trend and is one of the most sustainable things people can do in fashion.
As upcycling makes use of already existing pieces,
it often uses few resources in its creation and keeps ‘unwanted’ items out of the waste stream.”Beth Stewart, Redress co-founder, and Executive Director
