Local seamstress Jocelyn Negron, a fifth-year digital media major from Snellville, is setting up shop exclusively in Dynamite Clothing (143 N. Jackson St.), said Lori Taluck, owner of the vintage clothing store.
Since Nov. 3, a space previously used for storage now serves as the designer's own studio, called "Dynamite Refinery," where she will create custom designs from used and vintage garments.
Negron has sold her designs at Fortsons Clothiers and Agora and is a member of the Serge design collective, which recently held a fashion show at Go Bar.
"She's taking vintage clothes and reworking them into more contemporary, interesting, wearable creations that still totally have a vintage flair," said Taluck, who also owns 283 Bar.
