WILLIAMSBURG — Tabitha Sewer Studio held a Kids’ Fashion Show for four of its sewing students on Friday, Sept. 5, with a group of young designers debuting their very own handmade collections.
“This show represents so much more than fashion — it’s about confidence, creativity, and determination,” said Tabitha Sewer, founder of Tabitha Sewer Studio. “These kids have grown tremendously since they first learned to sew 2 1/2 years ago. To see them now, ready to reveal full collections to their community, is beyond inspiring.”
During the show, each of the designers was tasked with creating four pieces: a dress, a vest, a skirt, and an upcycled pair of pants. All of the designs were created with a theme of their choice in mind.

“Sewing is often called a lost art, but watching these young ladies grow reminds me why it’s so important to pass it on to the next generation,” said Sewer during the event. “They’re living proof that creativity, perseverance, and community can turn fabric and thread into something extraordinary.”
