What is Frocktails?
Frocktails is a party and social gathering for the sewing, textile, and maker community.
Itโs a night to celebrate the people who sew, alter, mend, costume, quilt, UPcycle, style, document, collect, experiment, and create with fabric.
Frocktails is for sewists, makers, UPcyclers, costumers, cosplayers, drag artists, historic costumers, crafters, fiber artists, textile lovers, and anyone who loves making things with fabric.
You donโt need to be a professional. You donโt need the perfect outfit. You just need to come ready to celebrate creative community.
Wear What You Love
Handmade, altered, UPcycled, costumed, mended, dramatic, practical, sentimental, experimental, over-the-top, or anything in between.
If you love it, wear it.
This is your excuse to pull out the piece youโve been waiting to wear, finish the project youโve been thinking about, style something in a new way, or simply come in something that feels like you.
