They’re back! 👛

My first small-batch collection of Fringe Bags has returned from my talented local cottage-industry sewers — and seeing them all together feels pretty special.
Made from reclaimed vintage textiles, each bag was cut by me and sewn locally here in London, Ontario. No two are quite the same.
A little vintage. A little bohemian. And a whole lot of fringe. 🤎

A little time away, a little fresh air, and a lot of inspiration. 🌲✨
Back from our glamping getaway and back in the studio — refreshed and ready to dive into designing the Second Verse Fall/Winter collection. 🧵🍂
Vintage wool blankets, cozy layers, texture, embroidery and a few new ideas I can’t wait to bring to life.
Sometimes stepping away is exactly what the creative process needs. 🤍

Sometimes the most sustainable choice is to leave a beautiful garment exactly as it is. 🤍
This rare late-1980s House of Bianchi wedding gown was one of those finds — 100% silk shell, sculptural sleeves, handmade roses, pearl details and a sweeping train.

From vintage wool blanket to something new. 🧶🪡
Stacks of rescued wool, mittens, capes and wraps taking shape. Using wool roving, needle felting and a few simple embroidered stitches.
I’m slowly building my fall collection by letting the colours, textures and history of each blanket guide what it becomes.
Made slowly. Made locally. Made from textiles worth keeping. 🤍

A little wear doesn’t have to mean the end. 🪡
These well-loved jeans had worn right through but with a little reinforcement and a lot of stitching, they’re ready for many more wears.
Wear them. Mend them. Wear them again. ♻️

A little milestone for Second Verse. 🤎
My first small-batch production is underway—17 tapestry bags, created from reclaimed upholstery textiles and thoughtfully prepared in my studio.
And for this next step, I’m proud to be working with talented local cottage-industry sewers right here in Ontario to bring each one to life.
For me, growing Second Verse means staying true to what matters: giving beautiful textiles a second life, producing in small quantities, and supporting skilled makers close to home.
17 bags. No two quite alike. Coming this fall. 🍂

Our Philosophy

Every textile deserves a second verse.

Second Verse Apparel was founded on the belief that beautiful materials shouldn't end up in landfill simply because their first chapter has ended.

Instead of producing new fabrics, I thoughtfully transform vintage quilts, lace, linens, wool blankets and reclaimed textiles into one-of-a-kind garments designed to be worn and loved for years to come.

Proudly designed and made in Ontario, I'm honoured to be recognized as an Ontario Made brand that celebrates local craftsmanship, thoughtful production, and slow batch Canadian manufacturing.

Thank you for supporting slow fashion, small business, and clothing with a story.

Welcome.

I'm Leigh-Ann, a designer, maker, and founder of Second Verse Apparel.

After more than 30 years in the fashion and design industry, I created this brand to prove that sustainability and beautiful design can exist together.

Every garment is handcrafted in Ontario from reclaimed textiles and vintage fabrics, making each piece truly one of a kind.

Here you'll find timeless clothing inspired by craftsmanship, creativity, and the stories woven into every textile. Honouring the past and connecting it to the present.

I'm so glad you're here.

✨ One of one.
🌿 Made slowly.
🤍 Crafted with purpose.

How Every Piece Begins

Nothing I create starts with a roll of new fabric.

Each garment begins with the search for forgotten textiles like vintage quilts, embroidered linens, lace, wool blankets, and fabrics that have lived a beautiful first life.

Every piece is carefully cleaned, restored when needed, or botanically dyed and thoughtfully designed, and handcrafted into something entirely new.

No mass production.
No duplicates.
No shortcuts.

Just slow, intentional craftsmanship that honours the hands that created these textiles before mine. Connecting past and present!
