About Second Verse

Second Verse Apparel is rooted in the belief that fashion can honor its past while shaping a more thoughtful future. As an upcycled fashion brand and designer, each piece is carefully handcrafted from reclaimed textiles, curtains, linens, vintage garments, and other forgotten materials, transformed into timeless, wearable art. All pieces are proudly made in Canada.
After more than three decades weaving threads of style and mentorship, Leigh-Ann Waller, a former fashion design professor and program coordinator, is now writing her bold second verse. With deep expertise and a lifelong commitment to mentoring emerging talent, she brings intention and integrity to every stitch.
At the heart of Second Verse is slow, sustainable fashion that values individuality. Leigh-Ann's craftsmanship and creative vision breathe new life into discarded fabrics, turning them into one-of-a-kind garments that carry a story, and start a new one.
