Trashy Fashion











At long last months of braiding plastic bags together and cutting up coffee cups paid off. I present to you the Trash Dress! We were up against some tough competition, a lot of the other entries were designed by people with clothing lines or attending college for design. We didn't end up winning, but we celebrated like we did anyways. I'm really happy with how it turned out and had a blast putting it together. The people I worked with are amazing people and awesome friends :)
The dress is 95% garbage, we just used some wire, glue and velcro to hold it together. The jewelery I made out of broken glass found in a parking lot and wire.
