What The Frock is about creating unique clothing and accessories from vintage and up-cycled materials, hand made with a passion for slow fashion.

Kia Ora, I am Karen. I have been making my own clothes since I was 10, cutting up my Mum's 70's flares or nana's table cloths to make skirts and dresses. My life long passion for sewing, a crazy obsession for textiles and a love of vintage has been a journey that has led me to create What The Frock, a one-woman-business selling one-off garments and whatever the frock I feel like. Everything crafted by me in my tiny home studio.

The fabrics sourced for these bright garments are repurposed or salvaged from preloved, and sometimes recoloured with natural dyes. This results in one-of-a-kind items that are natural, non-toxic and made carefully with aroha. I am a bit of a percolator, brewing up ideas constantly, some of which come into fruition and may appear in my shop from time to time. This whole starship enterprise supports a green and ethical philosophy.
