What is Frocktails?

Frocktails is a social event for people who sew their own clothing. The first Frocktails took place in Melbourne, Australia in 2013. Now, there are Frocktails events around the world! At its heart, Frocktails is a party — complete with drinks, music, and mingling — but with a creative twist: attendees are encouraged to wear something they’ve made themselves.
