Look at what 21 ...
of what I've always known as chinese shopper bags ...
has become ...
37 army camouflage jackets ...
is now a shapely fishtail gown
26 nylon baseball jackets ...
into this bubble-inspired little number ...
30 paper issues of the Financial Times ...
perfectly newsworthy and recyclable!
The couture-inspired collection, which was shown at London Fashion Week back in 2007, features gowns made entirely from recycled materials: 42 pairs of Levi’s 501s, 37 black tees, 30 copies of the Financial Times, 28 camouflage army jackets, 26 nylon baseball jackets, 21 laundry bags, 18 trench coats, ten pre-owned wedding dresses, and seven Hawaiian shirts — to be exact.
It seems that the original colors, textures and shapes of the reclaimed materials did much to inspire the silhouette of the final pieces themselves.
