Hi everyone I m Elahe, founder of Zip Up Service, a platform built to connect people with trusted local tailors helping reduce textile waste and give value back to craftsmanship.
The idea came from watching my mother sew and repair clothes for others always with care, never for payment. She gave dignity to this quiet, beautiful craft, and I wanted to continue that story.
Zip Up aims to make clothing repair and alteration accessible, sustainable, and human again. We re starting small here in the Netherlands, but the vision is much bigger
I d love to hear your thoughts what do you think about bringing more attention and respect to tailoring as part of the sustainable fashion movement?
Hi everyone! I m Elahe, the founder of Zip Up Service, a platform built to connect people with trusted local tailors while reducing textile waste.
This idea was born from watching my mother repair clothes for others - always with love, never for pay. She gave dignity to this craft. Now, I want to give it visibility and value.
Our goal is to make tailoring accessible, fair, and sustainable across Europe - starting right here in the Netherlands.
We re launching on Product Hunt this Tuesday (28 Oct 2025).
