About

Kim Cathers has been involved in the fashion industry for over 15 years. She has worn many hats, including, model, designer, retail store owner, environmentalist, Project Runway finalist, and most recently textile recycling activist.

Kim has always been a creative change-maker in her environments. She began remaking her own clothes over 15 years ago; she always understood the intricacies and necessity of living a life close to the earth. At the age of 20, she started a business called “ReStyle” where she would take old clothing and make fresh new items out of them. Kim travelled around to music festivals and farmers markets selling her wears with great success. She then moved to Vancouver five years later to get an education in technical sewing and pattern making. After graduating with the “Innovative Design” award from Blanche Macdonald Centre of Design in 2005, Kim opened and operated a successful vintage shoppe in downtown Vancouver which carried her own unique items as well as other local designers’. Two years ago Cathers was a finalist on Project Runway Canada, which helped to promote awareness and popularity of her fashion line.
