They say one person’s trash is another person’s treasure. For local clothing designer Grace Chetta, that saying rings especially true.
The LSU apparel alumna creates sustainable garments using colorful, textured and classic vintage fabrics. Her fabric collection has materials from as early as the ’60s, but her clothing designs are timeless.
On Chetta’s online shop, Gretta Garments, you’ll find items like a bright ’60s-style, long-sleeve, floral dress; a short, emerald dress with long, puffy, checkered sleeves and bottom half to match; and a mid-length, striped-and-floral mixed-print dress with a belt.
