Students at New Tech High in Dallas Texas created fashion out of what others think of as garbage. The students participated in the 2010 Recycled Fashion Show as part of the state’s Earth Day celebrations.
The students really get into the competition and the resulting designs are like wearable art. One example is a dress made out of garbage bags and newspaper. Everything had to be made from recycled materials like cardboard or even magazines. The designs were modeled to a large crowd.
This is a great idea for Earth Day next year – or for school projects throughout the year. It would even work for a green prom night or dance where all of the outfits were to be made out of recycled materials.
What can you do that is creative to reduce and recycle?
