The line features [re-purposed materials](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/long-lasting-clothing) and intentionally lived-in designs. The designer aimed to create clothes that give the feeling of relaxation that comes from previously owned clothing with these new fashion-forward articles. Featuring new pants, jackets, shirts and sweaters that were all created individually with hand-made detailing and needlepoint stitching. The [vintage style](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vintage-styles) may seem worn out, but each article was made with high-quality materials to provide long-lasting statement pieces to be worn, not hung up and admired. By adding feminine lace and quilted fabrics, this line of homely clothing by BODES creates a contrast to classic street-wear apparel.
