The Studio

Join award-winning LCF graduate Prae Chaiphet to give your favourite dolls and figurines a new look!

Led by emerging designer Prae Chaiphet, this interactive workshop will give your child the chance to create futuristic dolls clothes using a mix of fabric and electronic waste. Attendees can bring their own favourite figurine or use one of the dolls provided in the workshop as a micro mannequin. There will be a limited selection of preloved toys to use as mannequins if you don’t have your own. This fun workshop is the perfect opportunity for kids to unleash their creativity and learn about repurposing old clothes.

*Suitable for children aged 6-10 years
*All participants must be accompanied by an adult

The Studio will be jam packed with family-friendly activities so, whilst the kids get creative, why not refresh their wardrobe and your own at the Clothes Swap Shop, hosted by Verte, or learn all about rental and check out the latest collections from or collective.
