145: Creating a Sustainable and Stylish Future with Amber Lewandowski
“Expressing individuality through fashion has become a big part of people’s lives.”
Amber Lewandowski is a seasoned thrifter and upcycler based in the vibrant city of Denver, Colorado. With over three years of experience in the industry, she has established herself as a creative force in the world of sustainable fashion.
Specializing initially in rave fashion, Amber embarked on the journey of infusing new life into vintage and pre-loved clothing pieces. Drawing inspiration from the eclectic energy of the rave scene, she transforms forgotten garments into unique, eye-catching creations that capture the spirit of self-expression and individuality. She has used everything from old shirts, to thrifted place mats and blankets.

Through LewCe, she has not only offers a curated selection of upcycled rave wear but explores her creativity every day which has been such a blessing.
