About Me

In order to feel proud of what you wear you must first know where it came from, here at Monkeychoo all the items are created using as many recycled items as possible, in such a fast paced world where we can have what we want, when we want, we believe that we need to start thinking ethically and source materials from alternative suppliers. Technologically we have advanced so quickly we have lost our connection with nature and are quickly absorbing all of its assets, and so we find it vitally important to restore that link and show that in doing so we can create Beautiful authentic designs with integrity. All our designs are one off, hand sewn and made from beginning to end by the designer. We want our clientele to have a truly unique and exclusive item that they can feel dignified and rewarded wearing.

Transformation Steam Circus!


 For the weird, wonderful and daring nature in us all!



Bringing the Future and the past together here I have tried to create a recycled/up cycled unique hand sewn two part outfit, keeping in theme with the steampunk genre I started to look at fabrics that could be sourced locally and cheaply that would lend themselves well to an area of fashion that although follows a strong trend is able to break the rules and be innovative, I found after a lot of exploration with CAD design that denim jeans are a fabulously versatile material.
