Let go of the idea that diy will inherently look shit. All your clothes are handmade you just don't see the people doing it.

Friend wants to have demonia style boots but doesn't have the money or availability. Alt and goth fashion used to be diy and cheap. How could she do this now? Please share for reach and community knowledge in general cause the monetization of alt fashion is horrible
(Australian if that matters but all info will help honestly)

I know it’s far from a one-size-fits-all issue and I’ve been beating this dead horse for years, but I’ll never not hate when people argue against calls for DIY and tutorial/tip sharing with “all this is actually ableist because disabled people can’t DIY.” Not “I personally am disabled and have difficulty with a lot of DIY or Die type stuff, which is why I’m pointing out these difficulties and calling for information;” very specifically “DIY or Die is ableist because there are hypothetical disabled people out there (not me) who I’d assume hate it as much as I do.” Trust me when I say you are helping absolutely no one by poisoning the convo just to deflect your own insecurity, inactivity, or lack of experience. We don’t need you to regurgitate unprompted excuses as to why we couldn’t possibly participate in DIY culture so we may as well not even try, we need you to spread and share information that makes the pursuit more safe and accessible. It’s not one-size-fits-all and there are billions of ways your disabilities can and will impact your experience, how difficult it is, and what is and isn’t possible, which is why we need to be having these conversations instead of shutting them down before they can even start. DIY is not as intimidating as most people set it up to be, and can be a phenomenal tool for disabled people who are more likely to have tighter finances, limited resources, and a need to extend the life of the things they wear/use.
My perspective on this is probably most impacted by limited hand mobility and extreme pain using them. I injure myself a lot! But same applies to like… chopping vegetables. Holding a pencil or a spoon. Using an oven, washing dishes, changing the sheets… mundane life with disabilities is already difficult and often unrewarding. Learning to create, solve problems, apply the skills you’ve gathered in unlikely places, and show off your work is extremely gratifying in comparison. Do whatever suits you best, but don’t let yourself miss out on something you’d genuinely like to be a part of due to preconceived notions about how it’ll go. I’m not denying that it is much harder to DIY while disabled, but that’s what makes every breakthrough such a unique source of pride and fulfillment.

Something simpler this time; a cropped leather vest in the style of a denim jacket. I got it from me mum who got it from a cousin, no idea why, for the raw material, but ended up just wearing it. I had to enlarge the arm holes by a lot and cut off the collar completely before it was actually comfortable. There are no pockets, functional or otherwise, and the flaps in the front, as well as the back panel, are made out of some velvetesque fabric, which certainly adds character and some depth to the rather blank and flat leather.
Not much work has been done on it, apart from the aforementioned cutting, but there is something. The Opeth symbol above the left breast was once a whole iron-on patch I'd bought somewhere, and the back piece needed to be divided into two for the sake of making it larger without upsizing the paper itself. The part that makes me the proudest of myself has to be the ~maroon~ triangles as they were my second go at painting on leather at such a scale and my first success.
Not sure what else to do with it, but I'm open to suggestions.

Don't listen to people who tell you your diy project looks shit, even if they're telling the truth that's the devil talking

One of my strangest pieces, to be certain: a blazer/coat I found thrifting in my hometown. Well-fitting, even with a thick sweater underneath, looks decent with almost anything that isn't sweatpants, or cargos, and above all is perfect for the local weather a huge chunk of the year. Generally really adaptable to any need, all it truly lacks is more patches.
All designs, except for 1312, Calloused, and Pup on the shoulder came from Anarchostensilism's deviantart.
