All Angels Are Aliens is a creative clothing brand founded by Angel Contreras in 2019, based in Melbourne, Australia. With over 10 years of sewing experience, Angel crafts one-of-a-kind, handmade garments, with a focus on upcycled fashion using second-hand materials. By blending old-school DIY screen printing techniques, DIY sewing/mending, airbrushing, and more- Angel creates "wearable art" that brings new life to discarded fabrics and clothing.
Beyond clothing, Angel’s passion for sustainability and creativity extends to furniture, toys, and "traditional" art, all crafted with the same dedication and unique touch. All Angels Are Aliens is a creative outlet for Angel Contreras- and a testament to artistry, resourcefulness, and the beauty of reimagining what’s been left behind.
